With the 2025 national elections fast approaching, senatorial candidate Dante Marcoleta #38 staged a grand Miting de Avance at the Philippine Arena, drawing a crowd of approximately 55,000–60,000 supporters, including thousands of barangay officials and constituents from all over the country.
The massive event served as both a culminating show of strength and a testament to the overwhelming support behind House Bill 9400—a legislative measure championed by Marcoleta that seeks to strengthen local governance. This advocacy has earned him the trust and loyalty of over 42,000 barangay officials and workers nationwide, solidifying his position as a frontrunner in the senatorial race.
Leading the slate of guests was Mr. Paolo Marcoleta, president of SAGIP Partylist and son of the senatorial hopeful. He expressed his deep gratitude to attendees for joining their shared mission to serve the Filipino people and thanked them for their continued support of the SAGIP Partylist, which was formerly led by Dante Marcoleta #38.
Also gracing the event were prominent figures and political allies, including Veronica “Kitty” Duterte, daughter of former President Rodrigo Duterte, and Ms. Honeylet Avanceña, who both thanked the crowd for rallying behind Marcoleta’s candidacy.
Senator Robin Padilla delivered a rousing speech, urging the public to back Dante Marcoleta #38 in the coming elections. He hailed Marcoleta as a symbol of hope and resilience, whose legislative track record speaks volumes about his commitment to the nation.
Further boosting the event was a video message from Vice President Sara Duterte, who affirmed her support for Marcoleta’s vision. Her endorsement highlighted their shared advocacies and strengthened the political momentum behind Marcoleta’s senatorial bid.
In his address, Dante Marcoleta #38 thanked the crowd for their overwhelming turnout and reaffirmed his support for the Office of the Vice President amid ongoing controversies. He emphasized the need for urgent reforms in governance—calling for stronger anti-corruption measures, lower electricity costs, enhanced livelihood and healthcare programs, and greater legal aid for citizens. He also urged Filipinos to be discerning in electing leaders who are genuinely committed to uplifting lives through meaningful change.
The Philippine Arena, the world’s largest indoor venue, proved to be a fitting stage for what supporters hailed as a powerful and unifying pre-election rally—one that mirrored Marcoleta’s soaring popularity and steadfast dedication to true and fair public service.
