00:00Ninety-one days before the election of 2025, the campaign period will start tomorrow.

00:13The Commission on Elections in Comelec will determine the Committee on Contrabigay or the approach to vote buying and selling.

00:21Breaking news, Yvonne Aquino.

00:23The campaign period for the National Opposition will start on Tuesday, February 11.

00:31It will last until May 10.

00:33At this time, the aspirants are officially candidates and can campaign.

00:38The Commission on Elections in Comelec will also tighten their regulations on the placement of campaign materials.

00:44We have operation baklas.

00:46Our local Comelec will always conduct the removal of campaign materials

00:51to ensure that they will follow the size limitation.

00:55They can only be placed in the public places that we allow.

00:59But we cannot move private properties.

01:02Comelec will also tighten the regulations on vote buying and selling.

01:06The Committee on Contrabigay can file a complaint or submit a video of vote buying and selling.

01:12Comelec said they can now place the candidate who is involved in vote buying

01:17if he or her constituents earn low wages that may be related to the purchase and sale of votes.

01:25The house of the mayor has long lines.

01:29There are plastic goods.

01:32We will presume that the mayor is engaged in vote buying.

01:35We have to make presumptions.

01:37It's up to them to defend themselves.

01:39Comelec will issue a show-cause order to the candidate

01:42to explain why he or she should not be disqualified or be charged with election offense.

01:47It is also possible to buy votes using e-wallet.

01:50Comelec will also tighten the monitoring of e-wallet platforms.

01:54It is monitored because the platforms can monitor it.

01:58Where can you see that two days before the election,

02:00they will send 300, 400, 500 people.

02:03That's unusual.

02:05Ten days before the election, it is prohibited to give aid.

02:10Under Comelec Resolution 11104,

02:13it is considered abuse of state resources if it was done by an official who is currently in office,

02:19if he or she has control over government resources,

02:21and if he or she benefits from it, and others.

02:24Election offense is to give and receive payment for the vote.

02:27Anyone who acts can be arrested without warrant.

02:31These are the topics discussed in the GMA Master Class, Road to the 2025 Elections,

02:37an election briefing that is part of the preparation of GMA Integrated News for the election 2025.

02:43The Election Watchdog, Legal Network for Truthful Elections or LENTE,

02:47shares what was observed in the last election and what should be monitored in May.

02:53If you have more than two watchers per polling place,

02:56you are presumed to be committing vote-buying.

02:59We haven't seen that implemented yet,

03:02and we hope to see that implemented in the May 2025 National and Local Elections

03:08because that's one way politicians and their candidates skirt over this election offense of vote-buying.

03:16GMA Integrated News Research presented data related to the last elections

03:22and the upcoming 2025 elections to give context to the election coverage.

03:27It's important to see the voter turnout because being a vote-rich province or region

03:32is only half the story and becomes an advantage if registered voters actually vote.

03:38Much is at stake this May, and we'll do our best with the help of our partners and friends

03:43to live up to our commitment to an honest and truthful election coverage

03:48with stories we write, with the content we produce for all Filipinos, for the Philippines.

03:55It should be true.

03:56Von Aquino reporting for GMA Integrated News.
