People’s Television Network (PTV) has taken news dissemination for the elections up a notch as it goes on air for an integrated simulcast nationwide with other government networks starting May 9.
Commission on Elections (Comelec) Commissioner George Erwin Garcia asked the public to avoid wearing face masks and shirts bearing the names of their political candidates on May 9 which is already beyond the campaign period.
Commission on Elections (Comelec) Spokesperson James Jimenez said all election surveys published 15 days prior to election day do not violate the Fair Elections Act.
The Anti-Crime and Terrorism Community Involvement and Support (ACT-CIS) party-list retained its lead in the latest and final Pulse Asia poll survey as the most preferred party-list in the May 9 elections.
Less than a week before the elections, President Rodrigo Duterte on Tuesday, May 3, assured the public that the May 9 polls will be “free of violence and intimidation.”
