Police officers stand guard as Filipinos take part in a protest against election results outside the Commission on Elections building on May 10, 2022 in Manila, Philippines. Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. is poised to win the presidency in a hotly contested election marred by several incidents of violence and numerous complaints of faulty vote counting machines. Marcos, the son and namesake of ousted dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr. who was accused and charged of amassing billions of dollars of ill-gotten wealth as well as committing tens of thousands of human rights abuses during his autocratic rule, mounted a hugely popular campaign based largely on disinformation to return his family name to power. Election results a day after millions of Filipinos went to polls show Marcos enjoying a massive lead against main rival Vice President Leni Robredo. Also poised to win the vice presidency is Mayor Sara Duterte of Davao City, the daughter of outgoing President Rodrigo Duterte who is the subject of an international investigation for alleged human rights violations during his war on drugs.
