As a real candidate, I feel like Bruce would win. In terms of who I’d prefer based on comic knowledge, I’d still vote Bruce since he’s usually a better person than Tony.
Bruce would be mostly secretive about his agenda, except for guns. Anti guns all the way. He'd keep pouring resources into Gotham's community believing in the system, but would have a major crime/corruption problem.
Tony would be more upfront. He'd make drastic decisions that may lead to some improvements but will make mistakes along the way.
I can't believe ppl would actually vote for a guy who's more messed up in the head than any of the CV unholy trio. Just shows how CV is full of ppl who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a ballot. As for Tony, it's not the alcoholism that makes mistakes, it's that when he became involved in government he fucked up horribly (Civil War, anyone?)
That said Tony is still better since Bruce showed how ass his governing skills are in the last JL run with that divided planet of aliens. As President Batman, his paranoia would likely border on Panopticon/surveillance state levels and that's just not somewhere he can compete with Tony. Stark has a public persona with Iron Man and good experience dealing with domestic and international bodies, and Bruce couldn't get to that level even if Wanda went crazy and put on another Disassembled show for all to despair. His edgy interactions with Amanda Waller don't really help his case, either. Neither are good options in most senses of what "good" should mean, but I'd certainly vote Tony because I have vested interests in what he could do for the tech market, and Silicon Valley would be lighting up. That said, most viners couldn't see a financial opportunity even if it was glued to their face, so...

You actually made a good point about Bruce being secretive.
Bruce. His role as Bruce Wayne gives a certain amount of charm and he's good at the I love my city vibe or in this case my county.
Tony seems like he allows his ego to be more obvious and flamboyant and I could see him angering other world leaders. Bruce has a ego but it's far more subtle.
Tony also has far more red flags in his past known to the general public. Bruce has made some pretty decent mistakes but mostly as Batman
As for a better president? Bruce is pretty secretive so that alone is a low point lol
Both would be pretty bad choices for presidents but Bruce in the long run would be far better. Tony has way too many problems which he does not know how to control.
