NAGSINUNGALING KA NA NAMAN!

LAGOT KA, MIKE DEFENSOR (Sinungaling Kasi, eh!)

Mike Defensor kakasuhan sa pekeng survey (JB Salarzon)


Pinag-aaralan ngayon ng pamunuan ng Pulse Asia ang pagsasagawa ng legal na aksyon laban sa kampo ni dating Presidential chief of staff Mike Defensor kaugnay sa umano’y pagpapalabas ng “pekeng poll ratings” sa Quezon City na nailathala sa ilang pahayagan noong Marso 2.
Ito ay matapos itanggi ni Ronald D. Holmes, presidente ng Pulse Asia, ang survey na isinagawa sa nasabing lungsod noong February 15 na ipinalabas ng grupo ni Defensor na nagpapakita ng pagkalamang umano ng dating mambabatas kay QC Vice Mayor Herbert Bautista, pambato ng Liberal Party na kalaban nito sa pagka-alkalde ng lungsod.
Kaugnay nito, plano ring magpadala ng sulat ni Holmes sa mga pahayagan kung saan lumabas ang naturang mapanlinlang na ulat upang baguhin at itama ang mga ito.
NiIinaw kamakalawa ni Holmes na wala silang isinasagawang survey sa lungsod partikular na ang paglabas ng “pekeng poll ratings” na nagpapakita ng umano’y “pagdikit” ni Defensor sa kalaban nitong si Bautista sa survey ratings.
Iginiit pa ni Holmes na ang Pulse Asia ay hindi nangumisyon para magsagawa ng survey sa mga lokal na kandidato sa lungsod kahit pa kay Defensor, kaya maituturing nitong mali at peke ang survey.
“We have not conduc­ted a survey in Quezon City not for this election, not for anyone,” paliwanag pa ni nito sa mga reporters.

Pulse Asia Disowns QC Survey

INDEPENDENT polling firm Pulse Asia is now considering to take legal action against the camp of former presidential chief of staff Mike Defensor relative to the alleged Pulse Asia survey in Quezon City released by Defensor’s political officer on March 2.

Pulse Asia president Ronald D. Holmes disowned the supposed survey conducted in Quezon City showing Defensor improving his ratings over mayoralty contender Herbert Bautista.

Holmes said Pulse Asia will likewise send letters to concerned publications, to demand from them to correct such “erroneous” report claimed by the Defensor camp.

Holmes clarified that no such survey was conducted and figures published in newspapers were mere fabrications.

The fake poll results showed Defensor closing in on Vice Mayor Herbert “Bistek” Bautista, Liberal Party mayoralty bet, who posted an overwhelming lead over his rivals in a legitimate survey conducted by another poll agency in December.

Pulse Asia Denies Survey for Quezon City Mayor, Vice Bets


By Helen Flores
MANILA, Philippines - Independent polling firm Pulse Asia yesterday denied conducting a survey for Quezon City mayoral and vice mayoral bets which came out in a national newspaper and some tabloids yesterday.
“We have never conducted a survey in Quezon City. We did not conduct a survey in that particular period, not in this election. Definitely, we deny having done that survey being quoted in the newspaper report,” Pulse Asia President Ronald Holmes in a phone interview.
Holmes said Pulse Asia will send letters to concerned publications, demanding them to correct such “erroneous” report.
One of the publications that printed the said survey reported that former presidential management staff chief Michael Defensor is fast catching up with Vice Mayor Herbert “Bistek” Bautista in the mayoralty race in Quezon City. A Pulse Asia survey released on Feb. 15 showed Defensor trailing Bautista by only 6.1 percent after garnering a 36.4 percent preference rating. Bautista got 42.5 percent. Quezon City Rep. Annie Susano came in third with 9.5 percent; followed by Ariel Inton with 5.2 percent.
In the vice mayoralty race, Joy Belmonte topped the survey with 43.5 percent; followed by Quezon City councilor actress Aiko Melendez, 27.8 percent, and Babes Malaya, 21 percent.
Last week, the Social Weather Stations (SWS) also disowned survey results for Quezon City mayoralty and vice mayoral race mentioned in a column in tabloid. The said column claimed that in a survey by SWS Belmonte obtained 39 percent and Melendez 38 percent.
