The mother-and-daughter tandem of Imelda and April Aguilar has regained their posts as mayor and vice mayor of Las Piñas City in the recently concluded national and local elections.
Several local candidates in the provinces were proclaimed after winning their Eleksyon 2022 races, Cedrick Castillo reported Tuesday on “24 Oras.”
Around 200 vote-counting machines (VCM) used for Eleksyon 2022 needed replacement, church-based poll watcher Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV) reported Monday.
In a statement posted on its Twitter page, Kontra Daya called on the Comelec “to consider extending the voting hours beyond 7:00 p.m.”“The breakdown of VCMs and the long lines, among other issues, have affected the turnaround time in voting. Extending voting hours can help prevent disenfranchisement,” the polls watchdog said.
