MANILA - One out of every two voters in vote-rich areas of Luzon would have chosen Sen. Benigno 'Noynoy' Aquino III if presidential elections were held in early September 2009, according to a Special Survey by the Social Weather Stations (SWS) obtained by ANC and abs-cbnNEWS.com/Newsbreak.

Aquino was preferred by 50% of 1,200 respondents from a pre-selected list of five names that also included erstwhile survey leaders Sen. Manuel “Manny” Villar Jr., former President Joseph Estrada, Senator Francis 'Chiz' Escudero, and Vice-President Noli de Castro.

Villar, Estrada, and Escudero were statistically tied with 14%, 13%, and 12%, respectively. De Castro was preferred by 7% of respondents.

I am really a Coryhista and a diehard Ninoy. But as a catholic and a Pro-life practicioner i would want to know the stand of Noynoy on the issue of Contraceptives? Pocholo Nunez antoni04@yahoo.com

I don't think it should be our only criteria, however important it is for anyone, in choosing a president. Even Gloria supports population control but have to give in to pressure from the Catholic church. I'd prefer someone who'd take a stand on this and not give in to pressure from any group
