President-elect Rodrigo Duterte got a "moderate" trust rating at 26 percent, while Vice President-elect Leni Robredo enjoyed a "very good" rate at 45 percent, showed pollster Social Weather Stations' last pre-election survey released on Friday.
The SWS survey was conducted from May 1 to 3, roughly a week before the May 9 national polls, using face-to-face interviews with 4,500 respondents nationwide, and with a ±1-point sampling error margin.
The results of the study was only published on June 10 by SWS' media partner BusinesWorld.
The survey report showed that Duterte’s net trust rating had been largely “moderate” in December (+16), January (+13), February (+17), March 4-7 (+26) and March 30-April 2 (+29) before hitting a “good” +30 last April 18-20.
The SWS' trust rating scale is as follows: Net trust ratings of at least +70 as “excellent”; +50 to +69, “very good”; +30 to +49, “good”; +10 to +29, “moderate”; +9 to -9, “neutral”; -10 to -29, “poor”; -30 to -49, “bad”; -50 to -69, “very bad”; as well as -70 and below as “execrable.”
In the same survey, Vice President-elect Maria Leonor "Leni" G. Robredo got a “good” +45 trust rating, with 61% saying they had “much trust” (from 50% last Dec. 12-14) and 17% saying they had “little trust” in her (from 21%).
Starting from a “moderate” +29 net trust rating last December, Ms. Robredo’s grade improved to and stayed “good” between January and May, the BusienessWorld report said.
According to the SWS, the survey questions were non-commissioned, and were included on SWS' own initiative and released as a public service, with first printing rights assigned to BusinessWorld.
Also it said it employed its own staff for questionnaire design, sampling, fieldwork, data-processing, and analysis, and does not outsource any of its survey operations.
