What's hot …
By NESTOR MATA MALAYA ‘The just-concluded May mid-term national elections were dominated by familiar names of political dynasts and celebrities.’ THE elections are over, the results are known, and the winning candidates have been proclaimed. And, lo and behold, we see that the familiar names of political dynasts and celebrities dominated the ballots of the machine-conducted May 13 senatorial, congressional and local elections. The mid-term Read More …
By Jose Rodel Clapano The Philippine Star MANILA, Philippines – Vice President Jejomar Binay denied on Friday that he has lupus or that he is undergoing dialysis. In a speech delivered before members of the Philippine Medical Association (PMA) during the organization’s 106th convention and scientific meetings, Binay even asked PMA members to conduct medical examinations on him. “Perhaps rumors and speculations have already reached Read More …
By Kathlyn dela Cruz ABS-CBNnews.com MANILA, Philippines — Senator-elect Grace Poe, the topnotcher in the 2013 senatorial race, on Friday revealed how much she spent for her campaign. In an interview with ANC’s “Headstart,” Poe said she only spent roughly P60 to P70 million for political advertisements to boost her bid to the Senate. She said the money came from the pockets of her parents Read More …
GLIMPSES By Jose Ma. Montelibano I really like what Sen. Serge Osmena said about the recently concluded senatorial elections, “P-Noy won but Binay did not lose.” In my view, the 9-3 score is an affirmation of the President’s popularity. I do not believe that voters elected the senators because P-Noy said so, or Binay said so. That P-Noy or Binay said so may have affirmed Read More …
By GERARD NAVAL MALAYA THREE days after the May 13 midterm polls, the Commission on Elections sitting as the National Board of Canvassers, managed to proclaim six winning senatorial candidates. Based on 72 certificates of canvass processed as of yesterday out of the total 301, the NBOC proclaimed as winners Team PNoy members Grace Poe (6,978,111 votes), Loren Legarda (6,405,625), Alan Peter Cayetano (5,989,369), and Read More …
By Rio Rose Ribaya Yahoo! Southeast Asia Newsroom The daughter of Vice President Jejomar Binay wants everything to be “right” for her proclamation. This is the reason why Senator-elect Nancy Binay did not show up at the Commission on Elections (Comelec)’s partial proclamation of six senatorial winners on Thursday night. In a press conference, Binay said she was not comfortable with Comelec’s basis in proclaiming Read More …
By Ado Paglinawan THE MOST TAUNTED AND MALIGNED CANDIDATE IN THIS ELECTIONS PROVED TO BE THE MOST SENSIBLE AND BEST ADVISED. Nancy did not appear because her own coalition had questioned the integrity of the Comelec count. If she did, she would have been estopped from questioning the process. Indeed with the Comelec basing some of its decisions on FAXED election returns and just some Read More …
By JOSE BAYANI BAYLON MALAYA ‘The only way to elect Grace Poe to the Senate was to try to get as many of the FPJ voters in 2004 to vote for her in 2013 as an extension of his failed presidential bid.’ IF the partial and unofficial count of the Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting is to be believed, then the senators-elect who will Read More …
By Ellen Tordesillas Malaya The great thing about last Monday’s election is that, Grace Poe topped the senatorial elections. It must be ego-shattering for the three re-electionists – Loren Legarda, Chiz Escudero, and Alan Cayetano –whose desire for the number one slot is not a secret to the public. Other pluses about Monday’s polls are the re-election of Antonio Trillanes IV and Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel Read More …
By Llanesca T. Panti The Manila Times IF there was one big surprise from Monday’s elections, it was the way Team PNoy Senate bet Grace Poe-Llamanzares leaped to the top of the Senate race. Even Llamanzares did not see it coming, since Sen. Loren Legarda had consistently topped pre-election surveys. The former chief of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board believes that her Read More …
