Na-distribute na rin, so we had been anticipating na she can be in a a lot larger proportion sa nakikita natin ngayon,” Rye stated.

These have already been distributed, so we had been anticipating her to have a a lot larger proportion than what we’re seeing now.)
“Uphill talaga, kailangan magsipag pa ‘yung dalawang kasama niya sa survey para makahabol, lalo na ang ating incumbent mayor. Kailangan ng todo-sipag pa. Might 45 days pa,” he added.
(It’s positively an uphill battle. The 2 others within the survey have to work even tougher to catch up, particularly our incumbent mayor. They should give it their all—there are nonetheless 45 days to go.)
