Trader sentiment for the Democratic primary on August 1 favors Therese Terlaje at 75 percent largely because her late-April filing with running mate Sabina Perez followed strong grassroots momentum and her established profile as a veteran senator and former legislative speaker focused on cost-of-living relief, healthcare access, and public safety. Josh Tenorio, currently at 19 percent, draws support from his lieutenant governor role and leading early fundraising totals yet trails in perceived momentum since the three-way contest crystallized after the May 1 filing deadline. Joe S. San Agustin sits at 6.8 percent as the earliest entrant but has not matched the visibility of the other tickets. The August primary timing leaves room for shifts if additional campaign events or endorsements emerge in the coming weeks.
