An intense and vicious presidential campaign ended on May 7 in grand rallies in Metro Manila where bets made one final plea for votes. Front runner Rodrigo Duterte awed the nation with a huge crowd at the Luneta. Senator Grace Poe returned to Plaza Miranda in Quiapo, where she once held an impromptu rally after the Supreme Court issued a verdict allowing her to run. Administration candidate Manuel “Mar” Roxas II spoke before a sea of yellow at the Quezon City Memorial Circle, in a rally also attended by President Benigno Aquino III. Vice President Jejomar Binay chose to hold his miting de avance in his bailiwick, Makati, while Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago made a brief appearance before a street party of supporters in Quezon City.
