With more than 70% of the votes tabulated, Marcos Jr had more than 23.5m, far ahead of his closest rival, the current vice-president, Leni Robredo, a former human rights lawyer, who had 11.1m. The size of his lead means a comeback by his opponents is not possible.

Philippines is a real backwater. They are only redeemed by geography and history. Otherwise this son of a thug has won by 70%

70% is a lot of human beings.
Am not surprised - even murderers like Trump will get re-elected.
GO FIGURE!!!
