Robredo’s People’s Proclamation Rally had an estimated more than 20,000 people in pink.
Even Robedo got surprised by the number of her supporters in Quezon City.
“Kung hindi po ako nagkakamali, parang pangatlo o pang apat ko na ito [na rally] sa QC memorial circle… Pero walang kapantay ang tao ngayong umaga,” she told her supporters.
Initially, she expected that the number would be around 5,000.
“Yung umaga pa lang 5,000 people daw ang expected, sinabihan ko yung team namin wag maglalagay ng 5,000 dahil baka di naman natin makaya yung 5,000. Okay na yung sabihin natin na imbitado yung supporters, pero wag na magsabi ng numero. Mukhang wala sa aking nakinig,” she jest.
Robredo added, “Noong pauwi na kami ng gabi, lalo akong ninerbyos kasi ang nakalagay na, 20,000 na ang expected. Pero mabuti naman pala na hindi sila sumunod. Dahil ngayong araw po, lampas-lampas tayo sa 20,000 people.”
The grand rally kicked off at the Quezon City Hall. It ended at the Quezon Memorial Circle and lasted for about an hour. Sen. Kiko Pangilinan, Robredo’s running mate, was also in attendance, and her several senatorial slates.
