Sen. Grace Poe closes in on Vice President Jejomar Binay in the latest Social Weather Stations electoral survey.
Poe ranked second in the SWS survey conducted from March 20 to 23 this year with 31 percent, which was a five-percentage point away from Binay’s 36 percent rating. Poe’s March rating was a big increase from the previous 21 percent she received in December last year.

“I am humbled by the results of the survey. I view it as a positive appreciation and validation by a good number of our countrymen of my work within and prior to the survey period,” Poe said in a statement on Thursday.
“It inspires me that our people approve of what I have been doing and I will continue to do what I think is right and for the best interest of our countrymen,” she said.
“Patuloy akong magsisikap na gawin kung ano ang tama at makakatulong sa mas nakararami (I will continue to strive doing what is right and beneficial to the majority).”
Unlike Binay, Poe has yet to decide whether or not to join the 2016 presidential race. RC
