Senator Vicente “Tito” Sotto III ranked number one in Pulse Asia's nationwide survey on senatorial candidates in the 2016 elections.

Commissioned by ABS-CBN, the latest Pulse Asia poll was held from November 8 to 15 with 1,200 respondents

nationwide.

According to ABS-CBN News Online's report yesterday, December 15, Senator Sotto garnered 72.6 percent share of votes.

Although it didn't mention anything about Senator Sotto's visibility on Eat Bulaga!, he previously admitted that co-hosting the famous "Kalyeserye" segment helped boost his rating in the senatorial preference poll.

As it was, Senator Sotto also landed the top spot with 63.6 percent of votes in Pulse Asia's September poll.
