Sara Duterte's PDP Laban party is struggling in the polls ahead of the May mid-term elections, which will determine 12 Senate seats and various local positions.
In early February, the House of Representatives impeached Sara Duterte for multiple accusations, and her Senate trial will occur after the May 12 election.
