Marcos party, Lakas-CMD to field common Senate slate

DESPITE fraying relations with the patriarch of the Duterte clan, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Wednesday said he would reassemble the UniTeam coalition that swept him and Vice President Sara Duterte to power.

The President said this after his Partido Federal ng Pilipinas formalized an alliance with the Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats (Lakas-CMD), the dominant party in the House of Representatives — to pave the way for a common slate of candidates for senator in the 2025 midterm elections.
