MANILA, Philippines - The Social Weather Stations (SWS) confirmed yesterday the accuracy of a recent survey showing that the tandem of Vice Mayor Herbert Bautista and Joy Belmonte topped its recent survey for mayor and vice mayor of Quezon City.

The SWS survey, conducted from Dec. 16 to 19, 2009, was commissioned by a certain Giovanni Estrada.

Bautista led the list of mayoralty candidates with 75 percent, followed by Rep.

Three percent of the respondents could not identify a particular candidate they want, the SWS said.
