Dingdong Dantes, Isko Moreno on LP List of Possible Senatorial Bets

Dingdong Dantes, Herbert “Bistek” Bautista, “Isko Moreno,” Leila de Lima, Francis Tolentino and Leni Robredo.

They are among the 19 names short-listed for the administration coalition’s senatorial slate for the 2016 elections, according to Caloocan Rep. Edgar Erice, a member of the ruling Liberal Party (LP).

Only 12 seats in the 24-member Senate are at stake in May next year.

Actor Dantes is the husband of actress Marian Rivera and a commissioner-at-large of the National Youth Commission. Bautista is mayor of Quezon City while Isko Moreno is Manila Vice Mayor Francisco Domagoso. De Lima is the justice secretary and Robredo is Camarines Sur representative and widow of the former Interior Secretary Jesse Robredo.

The LP list includes reelectionists and former senators and members of the House of Representatives.

Others being considered for the administration senatorial ticket, Erice said, are reelectionists Senate President Franklin Drilon and Senators Ralph Recto, Teofisto Guingona III and Sergio Osmeña III; and former senators Panfilo Lacson and Francis Pangilinan.

Also on the list are Energy Secretary Jericho Petilla; Joel Villanueva, head of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority; Francis Tolentino, chair of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority; Philippine Health Insurance Corp. Director Risa Hontiveros; Representatives Roman Romulo of Pasig City (who is on his third and last term), Rufus Rodriguez of Cagayan de Oro (also on his last term), Lino Cayetano of Taguig and Mark Villar of Las Piñas.

June announcement

Erice said the lineup of the LP coalition would be finalized after the announcement of its candidates for president and vice president in June and after negotiations with coalition partners—the Nationalist People’s Coalition, Nacionalista Party, Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino, National Unity Party and Akbayan Citizens Action Party.

“We hope to announce our choice for our presidential candidate before the end of June. We hope to start formal talks with our allies from July to September. It will all start with our choice for president,” Erice said in a phone interview.

Erice said that at present, the LP was considering only Interior Secretary Mar Roxas as its presidential candidate.

Sen. Grace Poe was being considered for Roxas’ running mate although no formal talks had been made with the daughter of the late actor-director Fernando Poe Jr., he said.

In an interview on dzIQ, Erice confirmed reports that Energy Secretary Petilla had already submitted his resignation to President Aquino.

The LP lawmaker said Aquino had accepted Petilla’s resignation but no replacement had yet been found.

Filing of candidacy

Erice said he expected Roxas and De Lima to announce their resignations in June. Candidates for senator must file their certificates of candidacy in October.

Lacson is on the list because he has not yet decided on making a run for president in 2016, according to Erice.

The LP included Cayetano, a brother of Senators Alan Peter and Pia Cayetano, and Villar, a son of Sen. Cynthia Villar and former Senate President Manny Villar, because it had to reserve seats for its coalition partners.

Erice said that although Isko Moreno belonged to the Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino party of Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada, the former movie actor had sent word to LP officials that he wanted to join the administration’s senatorial ticket.

    2. Brgy Captain nlng dahil yun ang dapat palakasin! Tanggalin ang senado at kongreso para mapabilis ang progreso at pondo para sa mga tao! Baranggay dapat ang iimprove dahil ang powers nito e executive parang presidente o mayor o governor kaso walang gustong tumakbong big name dito dahil walang PDAF/PORK senado o kongreso 200mil at 70mil per year respectively kaya mas marami gusto magsenador! Pero kung sa mga baranggay ilalagpak mga PDAF/PORK e madali kasing masilip ang mga kabuktutan ng mga namumuno ng kanilang mga constituents kaya ayaw ng mga powers that be! Kelangan national level ang pondohan para maraming padding sa korapsyon!

    6. what a hateful person you are! dingdong may not be fit to run for senator yet, but are you even aware of the volunteer work he does? yung best actor nya recently was given by the golden screen, which is far more credible than star awards di ba? wag ka naman masyadong hater.

  17. I really like Mr Dantes, he seems like a good person, he helped a lot of people already even if he's not a politician but I am not in favor of him running for office, politicians in our country are corrupt, so kahit na mabuting tao ka Mr Dantes eh baka masali ka sa mga bad people in politics. So sana stay ka na lang sa mga volunteer works mo, we appreciate what you do.

  19. Whether Dingdong will run or not I will vote for him. Aside from being an artist and Marian Rivera's husband you guys should know High School pa lang ako and Hindi pa gnun kasikat Si Dingdong He already is sponsoring scholarship para sa mga Anak ng sundalo. My dad is in the military so I know the news. Then came Yes Pinoy, before it was televised and before it has received donations and etc... He uses his own money to help and even now. Their agendas are good like the chairs and etc... He is a college grad. Before you say something bad to him because he is an artist know that not everyone is the same. Aside from paying millions sa taxes he has a good genuine heart. He said he won't run before right ksi priority nya is his wife but I think Pnoy is asking him because of hatak sa masa. He is a reliable one, hear him speak in crowd and how he advocate. Godbless If you ever run!

  30. "It would be a turn off if Dingdong decides to run for public office come 2016. No matter how genuine he may be, there is no escaping governmental corruption. He should focus on his growing family and being an independent public servant. It'd be a great shame if his political ambitions are prioritized because he seems like a great husband and has the qualities to make a good father. Government could potentially damage his most treasured relationship.

    I'm not saying that he completely forgoes plans, but 2016 is a wee bit early considering Marianne's situation and their young marital status. Then again, he hasn't said anything yet.

    If Mr. Dantes is as intelligent as he likes to portray, he would postpone politics for his family."

  32. Bakit wla yung comment ko about Dingdong being a good man na even before he was popular eh he was sponsoring scholarship for the children of the military. I know, my dad was in military before and news came fast. I am supporter even before he became popular and way before he was with Marian Rivera. A college graduate and an advocate of youth. paying millions of taxes and using own money for yespnoy even before donations came in. Hear him speak in the crowd. He is a potential leader if he does pursue. Kso Db he said he won't run Ksi Marian is his priority.
