Miriam Defensor-Santiago doesn't deserve the fifth and last spot. She is the woman of future. #HalalanResults— RJ (@rjrecierdo) May 9, 2016
MDS is the best president we refuse to have. Too bad the joke is on us because it's not her loss, it's ours. #HalalanResults #Miriam— Lore (@bandsandnoble) May 9, 2016

Despite of her(Sen. MDS) health condition, she can still handle and fight for our country. She's an inspiring strong woman. #HalalanResults— Kerzly Gutierrez (@kerzxc) May 9, 2016

DU30 and MDS are the two deserving Presidents. But I hate seeing that while one is at the top the other is at the bottom. #HalalanResults— AJ Durana (@AJdurana) May 9, 2016

My mom saw me teary eyed because of Miriam. She told me that there's a reason if Miriam will lose this 2016 election. So, move on. 😢— #MIRIAM2016 (@KingAhrDee) May 9, 2016
Si Miriam ang perfect example ng "The one that got away" 😞— Ejay Dimayacyac (@juankulot) May 9, 2016
Person: I'm sad I want Miriam to win,she's just the best.— . (@taystrings) May 9, 2016
Same person: *didn't vote for Miriam*
Haaaaay Miriam. Please know that you have the fewest votes not because we don't trust you. It's not you, it's the situation.— Gianella Argao ♔ (@argaogianella) May 9, 2016
It's either #DU30 or #Miriam for me, still frustrated na she's at the bottom. Philippines, you can do better than that.— KidWolf (@officialkidwolf) May 9, 2016
