00:00Yesterday, it was normal. Now, there are familiars who ate their candidature.
00:06It's like a reunion of the re-electionists and the former senator on the day 2 of the COC filing.
00:12But there are also new faces, including one who is very angry.
00:17From Manila Hotel, live on TV, Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:20Sandra.
00:22Yes, Vicky, 10 senatorial aspirants filed their Certificate of Candidacy in COMELEC today.
00:32And among them are those who will return to the Senate, and the others are the re-electionist senators.
00:39COMELEC said that they will not easily disqualify,
00:43so the list of names in the ballot in the upcoming election could be longer.
00:49They said it's because of their new ruling of the Supreme Court that they need to follow.
01:01Victoriano Inte, the first senator to file his Certificate of Candidacy in COMELEC,
01:04had to run to the Senate today.
01:08Next to him today is the re-electionist, Senator Aimee Marcos,
01:12who was accompanied by her mother, former First Lady Imelda Marcos.
01:16She announced that she is now independent, but the party she put in the COC is a nationalist party.
01:22The target of the former Senate President Tito Soto also returned to the Senate.
01:27The former Senator Ping Lakson also did the same.
01:31At the same time, the re-electionist Senator Lito Lapid also filed his Certificate of Candidacy in COC.
01:37He also wants to be one of the 12 slots of the Senate of Eric Negapatan.
01:42He introduced himself as an engineer and building contractor.
01:45And Magno Manalo, he introduced himself as a pastor and a security guard.
01:50This is the third time that Betsaida Lopez ran for the Senate.
01:54I am being judged!
01:56He was emotional in front of the media because he always declares himself as a nuisance.
02:00Manuel Andrada also filed his Certificate of Candidacy in COC.
02:03He has filed his Certificate of Candidacy in COC twice already.
02:06And Gianri Gargarita, he introduced himself as an Army Reservist.
02:10According to COMELEC, not everyone who filed their Certificate of Candidacy in COC will be put in jail
02:15because someone might be disqualified or declared as a nuisance candidate.
02:19How is a nuisance candidate referred to?
02:22Under the Omnibus Election Code, a person who filed his Certificate of Candidacy in COC
02:29might be declared as a nuisance candidate to make the election process easier or to avoid confusion.
02:33For example, a person with the same name.
02:36And if the person who filed his Certificate of Candidacy in COC has no real intention of running for a particular position.
02:42COMELEC also said that there are two new rulings in the Supreme Court
02:45that could be said to restrict the process of declaring a nuisance candidate as an aspirant.
02:51The Supreme Court said that a person cannot be declared as a nuisance candidate
02:56because he does not have the financial capacity to launch a nationwide campaign.
03:00In the second decision of the Supreme Court, the reason was also removed
03:04that it is not because you are not familiar with the society or you do not have a political party
03:08that you will automatically be declared as a nuisance candidate.
03:11The names in the ballot may be extended because it is possible that more qualified senators will run this time.
03:17But the legal department will still charge him within five days and he will be filed in COMELEC and Bank.
03:24They are monitoring the movements and statements of aspirants in the media to see their intention.
03:31Vicky, according to COMELEC Chairman George Erwin Garcia,
03:40it is also based on the reports that they received from the PNP that the first two days of filing the Certificate of Candidacy were fine and quiet.
03:51Vicky?
03:52Sandra, there are personalities who filed for COC again even though they were declared as a nuisance candidate before.
03:58Is COMELEC allowed to accept their COC even though they were declared as a nuisance candidate before the election?
04:10Vicky, COMELEC is explaining that they do not have a limit and they are allowed to file this.
04:18Their basis is that all people can aspire to serve our country.
04:26The requirements for filing COC are very strict and complete.
04:33They are allowed to file.
04:35Vicky, there are some here who filed.
04:37Whenever there is an election and there are different positions, sometimes they only file senatorial candidates.
04:44So there is no limit according to COMELEC.
04:48Vicky?
04:49Sandra, more and more people are filing for COC.
04:52According to COMELEC, how many senators can we expect to see in Balota in 2025?
05:03Vicky, as of now, they cannot say anything about the estimate or filing.
05:08But what they are saying is that when filing for COC, when accepting COC, they are liberal and they call it ministerial.
05:17They will only look at the requirements.
05:20But they were explaining earlier that they have a trial that will take place in the first 5 days.
05:28After October 1 to 8, there will be a 5-day period where the legal department of COMELEC will submit to the ANBANC
05:38their recommendations on who can be declared as a nuisance candidate.
05:44Later on, these nuisance candidates can be justified or they can make a representation here in COMELEC
05:53so that they can be included in Balota.
05:56Vicky?
05:57Thank you very much, Sandra Aguinaldo.
06:00If in Manila Hotel, there is a senatorial aspirant who is emotional,
06:06In the nearby Quirino Grand Sand, the supporters are in their own world.
06:11And there is also a guest who is blessed.
06:14Let's take a look at the live performance of Oscar Oida.
06:18Oscar?
06:22ML, give everything to those who came here to Quirino Grand Sand
06:26to show their support to their children who received the Certificate of Candidacy or COC today.
06:37Fiesta?
06:38No, because these are just supporters of the candidates who came here to Quirino Grand Sand.
06:46In fairness, the music is complete because there are majorettes as well.
06:53The supporters are also full force to the party list nominees who came here in colors.
07:00The band of this group also has a dance.
07:05Yes, we support that.
07:07We will not give up on them.
07:09So that we can also help them.
07:13So that they can also help us.
07:15But there is no election yet.
07:18Someone already won, at least on this day.
07:21Just like the server, Mang Roy, who sold a lot.
07:27I also have rice and food to buy.
07:33The 400 policemen of Manila who are guarding the Manila Hotel are also full force.
07:39The additional forces are from the Philippine Marine Corps.
07:43We think that our forces are enough.
07:45But if the situation gets hot, we have a lot of additional forces to use.
07:53MPD Mel said that their forces are enough to guard the venue.
08:03But if necessary, they will add more.
08:06Mel?
08:08Thank you very much, Oscar Roida.
08:10The party list nominees who ate the candidature were also added.
08:15In addition to the 15 party list nominees who ate yesterday,
08:19the 11 party list nominees who filed the Certificate of Nomination and Certificate of Acceptance of Nomination
08:27today, the total number of party list nominees is already 26.
08:34Kerwin Espinoza ate the Certificate of Candidacy
08:38which was once donated by former President Rodrigo Duterte for drugs.
08:42For that, in the term of mayor of Albuera, Leyte,
08:46a position that was once held by his father, Rolando Espinoza.
08:50Although the court released him in Makati and Baybay City, Leyte,
08:54in the case of Conspiracy to Commit Illegal Drug Trading and Other Drug Cases,
08:59the Court of Appeals reviewed his two cases this year
09:03related to illegal possession of dangerous drugs and illegal possession of firearms.
09:08Espinoza also has two pending cases in PASAY-RTC because of his violation of the Anti-Money Laundering Law.
