Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr, son of a former Philippines' dictator, is headed for a landslide win in the country's presidential race, according to partial and preliminary results.
The 64-year-old senator has so far won 56% of the vote, compared to 28% for rival Leni Robredo.
Mr Marcos' victory would return his family to power 36 years after they were ousted by a popular revolution.
Critics allege his campaign was fuelled by misinformation, which he denies.
