Davao City mayor Rodrigo Duterte won the capital of the Philippines, Manila by a wide margin in the presidential race defeating senator Grace Poe, Vice president Jejomar Binay, DILG Secretary Mar Roxas, and senator Miriam Defensor Santiago.
Senator Bongbong Marcos won by a bigger margin in Manila defeating Camarines Sur's 3rd district house representative Leni Robredo, fellow senators Alan Peter Cayetano, Francis Escudero, Antonio Trillanes, and Gregorio Honasan.
According to the Constitution of the Philippines, the elections are held every six years after 1992, on the second Monday of May. The incumbent president is term limited and ineligible for re-election. The incumbent vice president is eligible to run for re-election and may run for two consecutive terms. The plurality voting system is used to determine the winner: the candidate with the highest number of votes, whether or not one has a majority, wins the presidency. The vice presidential election is a separate election, is held on the same rules, and voters may split their ticket. Both winners will serve six-year terms commencing on the noon of June 30, 2016, and ending on the same day six years later.[2]
