Presidential candidate Isko Moreno will hold his miting de avance in Tondo on Saturday, coming home to Manila as he winds down his election campaign.
The 47-year-old former actor, who placed fourth in Pulse Asia's last survey before the May 9 vote, is positioning himself as a candidate who understands what it's like to be a poor Tondo boy with big dreams.
Joining him on his last campaign rally starting Saturday, 4 p.m. is his running mate, medical doctor Willie Ong, and his four senatorial candidates Carl Balita, Samira Gutoc, Jopet Sison, and John Castriciones.

Francisco Domagoso in real life, Moreno also brands himself as an alternative to ruling politicians while showcasing his free housing and swift pandemic response as a one-term mayor of the capital city.
Should Moreno win, he will only be the second mayor to go straight to Malacanang from city hall after Rodrigo Duterte in 2016 and the second with a movie star past, after Joseph Estrada in 1998.
