Multiple reports citing an OCTA Research survey say most Filipinos are skeptical about how senators will decide in the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte. Across the cited articles, the findings indicate that only a minority of respondents believe senators will base their verdict on evidence and the law rather than political considerations. One report states that, in a survey conducted from April 20 to 24, 32% of respondents said they do not believe senator-judges will decide based on the evidence. A larger share—49%—said they were undecided about how the Senate would rule. Another account likewise describes the overall pattern as roughly four out of five people either doubting the process or not knowing what the outcome will be. A separate headline summary places the belief that senators will judge fairly on evidence at 19%. The reports converge on the same core conclusion: public confidence in a legally grounded, evidence-based decision is low, while many respondents express uncertainty.
