Holy Week during an election year is always a key milestone. Taking place less than a month before election day, it’s a benchmark for where the candidates are in their campaigns.
It is also a time for reflection – for candidates, volunteers, politicians, and voters. Candidates don’t hold major campaign events during Holy Thursday and Good Friday. In this spirit, this episode lets you ask the questions. We crowdsourced your queries through social media posts on all our platforms and compiled them, and reporters respond to them on-air.

As March is Women’s Month, in this new episode of Campaign Convos, Rappler campaign reporters talk about the candidacies of Leni Robredo and Sara Duterte, the lone women in their respective 2022 races.
Out of 10 presidential candidates, Robredo is the sole woman. Out of nine vice presidential bets, Duterte is the only woman. In the Senate race, women are also the minority – only 7 out of 64. While Robredo and Sara are both empowering women in their own right, their candidacies are very different and are at opposite ends of the political spectrum.
What does it mean to be a woman running for political office? How has being a woman shaped their candidacies? How do voters perceive female candidates?

In this first episode of Campaign Convos, campaign reporters talk about how presidential and VP candidates deal with media – whether it's during sit-down interviews, in Viber groups hosted by their communication teams, or in direct messages with journalists.
