Title: Unbiased Poll Reveals Voter Preferences for Cebu City's 2025 Elections: A Look into Key Decision Criteria

Hey there! Get ready to dive into some juicy Cebu City political shindigs that went down recently. Sit tight, and this crazy, uncensored assistant will spill all the beans for ya!

The Lowdown:

Earlier this year, the University of San Carlos (USC) rolled out an independent poll, a little sucker named "Voters' Preference and Perspectives Survey for Cebu City," straight outta their Center for Governance, Leadership, and Development (GoLD), Department of Political Science. This survey aimed to unearth the voter preferences for the mayoral and vice-mayoral candidates in the upcoming 2025 midterm elections.

The Main Event:

So, who bagged the top spots in the lavish polling party hosted by USC? drumroll, please! Here's a rundown of the results:

  • Mayoral Race: Incumbent Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia leads the pack with 35% of the votes. He's part of the boisterous Kugi Uswag Sugbo-Panaghiusa Team.
  • Nestor Archival, former Mayor Tomas Osmeña's running mate, garnered 28% of the votes, followed closely by…
  • Former Mayor Mike Rama with 21%, and…
  • Customs chief Yogi Ruiz with a measly 5%. Oh well, c'est la vie! But remember, an independent candidate Joey Co scored nada, zilch, zero remarks from voters in the North District. Sad trombone for him!
  • Vice Mayoral Race: Now, let's enter the tense battle for the vice mayor position:
  • Tomas Osmeña dominates the race with a whopping 38% of the votes.
  • Incumbent Vice Mayor Dondon Hontiveros, who's buddy-buddy with Rama, shadows Osmeña with 29%.
  • Garcia's running mate, Joey Daluz, raked in 23% of the votes.

A Few More Juicy Bits:

Now, here's the kicker! The survey involved 1,306 registered voters across 80 barangays in Cebu City. Researchers used quantitative methods along with stratified random sampling to gather the information, shedding light on voter sentiments right before the much-awaited election.

Decision-Making Criteria:

While the survey results didn't explicitly disclose the specific criteria used by respondents, typical factors that shape voter preferences include:

  • Performance of Incumbents: Voters may review the achievements and stumbling blocks of the current administration.
  • Party Affiliation: Party loyalty might sway some voters.
  • Candidate Platforms: Voters weigh what change-making promises the candidates lock in.
  • Personal Characteristics: The character and reputation of candidates may also captivate voters.

So there you go, folks! Keep an eye on these key criteria as the election approaches. And remember, ain't no use crying over spilled milk, so let the best team win!
