What Kind of Voter Are You?
Are you one of these types or a mix of many?
As our country prepares for another election, it’s important for everyone to reflect on a simple but powerful question: Anong klaseng botante ka?
Are you the Fanatic Voter, the one who supports a candidate no matter what, simply because of loyalty, fame, or family legacy? You believe in your candidate wholeheartedly, even when issues arise.
Or maybe you’re the Intellectual Voter, someone who values intelligence, clear plans, and logical thinking. You choose those who present concrete solutions to national problems.
Perhaps you’re the Experience-Based Voter, who believes that past performance is the best indicator of future success. You trust candidates who’ve already held public office and delivered results.
Maybe a Clean Record Voter? The one who puts integrity above all. You refuse to vote for anyone with a tainted record—be it corruption, abuse, or pending cases.
Are you the Practical Voter? This type votes based on personal or community gain—who brings giveaways, projects, or benefits to your area. While practical, this mindset may sometimes overlook long-term impact.
Maybe you’re the Emotional Voter, moved by a candidate’s personal story or struggles. You connect with them on a human level, hoping their empathy leads to better governance.
Or the Bandwagon Voter, who follows the trend and picks whoever’s leading in surveys or on social media. Popularity becomes your main basis for choice.
How about the Passive Voter? You vote out of obligation or pressure, not passion. You don’t dig deep into the issues or platforms—just check a name and move on.
Maybe you’re the Protest Voter, the one who votes not necessarily for someone, but against someone. You use your vote to block a candidate you dislike, even if you’re not fully convinced by your chosen one.
Or the Hopeful Voter, who sees the potential for change even in underdogs. You believe in giving new leaders a chance, hoping fresh faces can break the cycle of old politics.
These voter types reflect the diverse motivations behind every vote. But here’s the truth: election is not a popularity contest! It is a responsibility.
Vote wisely. Research. Reflect. Choose leaders who will uplift the country, not just entertain or offer temporary gain.
