Pierantozzi’s support makes this a closer race for Palaus President.  In the primary election Sumang-Pierantozzi carried 18% of the vote.  If all of her supporters shift to candidate Johnson Toribiong, who carried 33%, the margin for the upcoming Presidential election narrows to within a few percentage points.
Miss Sumang-Pierantozzi has announced her candidacy  for Senate as a write-in candidate where 34 candidates are now competing for 13 seats. The other write in candidate is Semdiu Decherong who announced after a group of supporters asked him to do so.
These are the results of the primary for president.
