MANILA, Philippines – The daughter of vice presidential aspirant, Leni Robredo, got a surprising note of support while she was studying at a coffee shop; apparently from one of her mother’s supporters.
Tricia, Camarines Sur Rep. Robredo’s second-eldest daughter with the late Interior Seretary Jesse Robredo, shared a copy of the note on Instagram. It read:
Hi Tricia,
I didn’t want to disturb you as I could see you’re studying – but just want to say I and my entire family are voting for your mom!
Campaigning in our own small way, too!
Tricia said she was studying at a coffee shop for an exam on Friday morning when a kind lady handed her the note on her way out.
“I’ve been feeling guilty all week, knowing that I couldn’t do a lot in the campaign now that I’m back in school,” Robredo’s daughter wrote on Instagram.
She added: “But this gesture really melted my heart and I take a bit of comfort in knowing that we’ve been blessed with warriors, like Miss Mona right here, who are fighting this fight with us.”
The same note was also shared on Leni Robredo’s official Facebook page; earning over 15,000 likes and nearly 800 shares as of posting.
Rep. Leni Robredo is running for vice president alongside administration and Liberal Party (LP) bet Mar Roxas. Her survey showing has improved signifcantly since September last year where she was virtually left out by respondents who prefer Chiz Escudero, Bongbong Marcos and Alan Peter Cayetano back then.
She placed third in the latest Pulse Asia survey with 18 percent; although she is still considered statistically tied with fourth-placer Senator Alan Peter Cayetano who got 14 percent.
Robredo and rival Escudero is expected to polarize Bicolano voters over choice for vice president in the May election; with the two frontrunners splitting majority of the voters between them.
Two other VP hopefuls – Senator Gregorio ‘Gringo’ Honasan who hails from Sorsogon and Senator Antonio Trillanes IV who comes from Albay province – are tracing their root to Bicolandia; one of the country’s vote-rich regions.
