Episode 9: The class divide and elections
Update: 2022-04-08
Description
Are Kakampinks elitist? Does “masa appeal” still matter for a presidential candidate? Why does Ferdinand Marcos Jr., a scion of a wealthy political family, seem to captivate even the poorest in the country? Is Isko Moreno’s populist branding working?
In this episode, listen to Rappler campaign reporters talk about how the class divide is affecting campaigns of presidential and vice-presidential bets, and how it could influence the outcome of the high-stakes polls in May.
AND I QUOTE: Partido Reporma president Pantaleon Alvarez tell Rappler's Mara Cepeda why his support for Vice President Leni Robredo isn't about protection from Sara Duterte.
