The MONOPAL Team Grupo Serbisyo lead by Cong. Monico Puentevella, former Vice Mayor Renecito Novero, and ex-Councilor Ana Marie Palermo, will hold a grand rally tonight at the South Capitol Road, following a 6 p.m. torch parade that will start from various strategic areas in Bacolod City.
The South Capitol Road is symbolic for Puentevella, who held his last three miting de avance in the site - in 2001, 2004 and 2007 - when he ran and subsequently won as congressman for three terms. The MONOPAL Team slate banners Puentevella as its candidate for mayor; Novero, for congressman; and Palermo, for vice mayor. Those running for councilor are Catalino Alisbo, Archie Baribar, Lorney Lyzander Dilag, El Cid Familiaran, Buen Gallenero, Ma. Victoria Nanette Garcia, Norma Juarez, Bobbie Lucasan, Jose Maria "Totong" Regalado Jr., Marlon Solidum, Elmer Sy, and Sonya Verdeflor. The torch parade and rally will be joined by about 15,000 supporters of the MONOPAL Team coming from the 61 barangays of the city. Sectoral representatives and allies from various groups and organizations in the city will show their support to the MONOPAL Team as well. Local supporters of presidential candidate Gilbert "Gibo" Teodoro, standard bearer of Lakas-Kampi-CMD, will also join the proclamation rally. Puentevella topped the three Bombo Radyo-initiated surveys for the mayoralty race from February to April, prevailing incumbent Mayor Evelio Leonardia. Latest results of the Random Access Consultant Inc. (RACI) survey conducted between April 24 to 26, 2010 showed Puentevella leading Leonardia by 12.5 percent after garnering 49.3 percent against the mayor’s 36.8 percent. Leonardia’s acceptability and popularity was also down by 3.3 percent based on identical 40.1 percent results during the Bombo RACI polls last February and March. On the other hand, Puentevella posted 42.5 percent in February and 49.4 percent in March.*
