Duterte patriarch pivots to running for senator

Former President Rodrigo Duterte cancelled his certificate of candidacy (COC) for Davao City mayor and instead registered to join the 2025 senatorial race.

A report from DZRH radio said Duterte, who has been faring well in the pre-election surveys for senator, would be returning to national politics in next year’s elections. He withdrew his COC for Davao City mayor, which he filed yesterday October 7.

Duterte will reportedly file his COC for senator at the Manila Hotel City Tent, where the Commission on Elections (Comelec) set up a temporary office to accommodate a number of aspiring politicians expected to submit their candidacies on the last day of registration period.
