The 2022 Philippine presidential election results in Cavite reaffirm the province’s status as a bellwether in Philippine politics, showcasing the substantial backing for Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. and the significant challenges faced by his opponents. Despite being a native of Cavite, then Senator Panfilo Lacson was defeated by Marcos, who secured 1,121,668 votes—more than a million than Lacson’s 91,677 votes. Lacson placed third in the province, with incumbent Vice President Leni Robredo in second place, receiving 497,898 votes.
This outcome was anticipated in part due to Cavite Governor Jonvic Remulla's earlier pledge to deliver more than 800,000 votes for Marcos. However, Marcos's actual support in Cavite far surpassed this number, revealing a robust voter base that was well-established before the campaign even started.
For Robredo’s supporters, the significant margin between her and Marcos highlights the challenge of changing voter sentiment in a province known for its predictive electoral patterns. Despite efforts like large rallies and social media campaigns, these were not enough to counter the deep-rooted support for Marcos.
