Sara Duterte-Carpio says public clamor pushed her to run for VP Halalan2022
DAVAO CITY -- Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio said Tuesday that public clamor pushed her to run for the vice presidency next year.
She added that a supporter told her to run for the country's second-highest office after President Rodrigo Duterte decided not to push through with his own bid for the post. Eventually, after dropping his vice presidential bid, her father opted to run for senator instead. Duterte-Carpio meanwhile dropped her re-election bid for the mayoralty of Davao City to run for vice president.
Duterte-Carpio said she became Marcos' running mate because she wanted a leader with experience working as a local chief executive.
