In the watershed Pulse Asia survey of Jan. 22-26, the ground under the presidential race shifted violently, changing.***pletely the panorama of the 2010 election and making it more volatile, less than three months into the polls.

The survey showed the front-runner since September 2009, Sen. Benigno Aquino III, locked in a statistical tie with Sen. Manuel Villar. Aquino polled 37 percent and Villar, 35 percent, as the first choice of respondents.

The obvious picture from the survey is that Villar made a remarkable leap-frog, gaining 12 percentage points from the December 2009 survey, while Aquino declined by 8 percentage points. The survey marked the turning point of the resurgence of Villar and the decline of Aquino.

Less obvious but as important is the result that while Aquinos rating was falling, that of his running mate, Sen. Manuel Mar Roxas II, was rising.

Whats turning out is that the race is no longer what it had appeared to be—a two-party contest between Aquinos Liberal Party (LP) and Villars Nacionalista Party (NP). The race appears to be narrowing to a duel between Aquino and Villar, as the rest of the aspirants have fallen behind.

For example, ex-President Joseph Estrada was struggling at 12 percent and Gilbert Teodoro Jr., candidate of the administrations ruling coalition Lakas-Kampi-CMD, at 5 percent. The ratings of the rest are statistically inconsequential.

Focusing on Roxas holding up better than Aquino, the surveys show the volatility lies in the presidential race, where changes in the lead could be expected in the next couple of weeks.

In the Jan. 21-24 survey of Social Weather Stations, Aquino was the preferred choice of 42 percent, down from 44 percent in the Dec. 27-28 survey and from 46 percent in the Dec. 5-10 poll. Villar gained 2 percentage points from late December to 35 percent, and 8 percentage points from early December.
