Sa campaign rally na isinagawa sa Ormoc City, ipinakilala ni Gomez si Marcos bilang susunod na pangulo ng bansa na sinegunadahan naman ni Torres.
“Here is a man who is a foster boy for unity. He offers unity, healing moving forward,” sabi ni Torres.
Sinabi pa ng kongresista na malaking bagay na naging panauhing pandangal sa nasabing rally si Marcos.
“We always say that it is an act of God, the presidency is destiny. And if it is in God’s will for this man to be our next President, I know that he will be the best that we ever have in this country,” pahayag pa nito.
Samantala, si Senador Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa ang naging kinatawan ni Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats (CMD) president at Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte.
