As the 2025 senatorial election approaches, a new poll by market research company Tangere reveals a neck-and-neck race between two brothers, media executive Ben Tulfo and ACT-CIS Rep. Erwin Tulfo. The survey indicates that both candidates are currently tied at 53 percent voter preference.
Here are five key takeaways from the latest poll
Insight #1 Regional Strengths
The poll reveals distinct regional strengths for each candidate. Ben Tulfo performed well in Metro Manila, while Erwin dominated Northern Luzon, Central Luzon, and Southern Luzon. This divide highlights the unique appeal of each candidate to different regions.
Insight #2 Age-Related Preferences
Demographically, the poll suggests that age plays a significant role in shaping voter preferences. Ben Tulfo was preferred by younger voters (ages 18-25), while Erwin enjoyed higher support from older respondents. This age-related preference indicates that each candidate is appealing to different segments of the population.
Insight #3 Decline in Erwin Tulfo's Numbers
Notably, this poll marks a second consecutive month of significant decline for Erwin Tulfo's numbers, attributed to concerns regarding his citizenship status. As the election draws near, it will be crucial for Erwin to address these concerns and regain momentum.

Incumbent Sen. Bong Go remains a strong contender, with a voter preference of 51.25 percent, placing him in third place overall. His support remained particularly strong in Mindanao, where he continued to top the rankings, especially among voters ages 36-50.
Insight #5 Intense Competition
The survey highlights the intense competition among candidates vying for a spot in the Senate. With several candidates statistically tied between seventh and tenth place, it's clear that every vote counts, and each candidate must bring their A-game to stand out from the pack.
Overall, this poll suggests that the 2025 senatorial election will be a closely contested race, with no clear frontrunner emerging at this stage.
