The senator initially vacillated on the run, because Abby said she wanted her husband, Makati Rep. Luis Campos, to succeed her as mayor.
But Nancy said “a growing public clamor” for her to run has solidified her decision.
According to Binay, she was open to talking to Campos’ camp, saying she did not want any conflict within their family. Still, she stressed that her priority would be what was best for the city. —Tina Santos
