Ferdinand Marcos Jr is on course to win the Philippines presidential election by a landslide, according to partial and unofficial results.

Ferdinand Marcos Jr, the son of the former Philippine dictator, is on the cusp of winning the Philippine presidential election by a landslide, according to preliminary and unofficial results, taking the Marcos dynasty one step closer to the Malacañang Palace, 36 years after the family fled a mass uprising.

Marcos Jr has about 30 million votes compared to his closest rival, the outgoing Vice President Leni Robredo, who has about 14 million votes, according to a partial and unofficial tally of the Commission on Elections , reported by CNN affiliate CNN Philippines. Official results, however, could take weeks to be confirmed.

Ever read:democracy is not the best system, it's the less bad,suitable description over what just happened in Philippines:people erased of his memory the horrores lived under Marco's father

This is crazy.Unfortunately if they elect him they only have themselves to blame.Same as the US faces.What is going on with society that being rules by a dictatorship is the will? Have people become so wrapped up in their own lives that they no longer want responsibility of it?
