A call for a clean, honest, quick, and transparent counting of the votes
We, the senatorial candidates of the Genuine Opposition, strongly denounce the numerous cases of actual and attempted eelctoral fraud,cheating, manipulation, and sabotage in relation to the senatorial elections and the ongoing counting of votes.
In particular, we vehemently object to the inclusion of the very questionable “election results” from Maguindanao in the national canvass in view of reports that these “results” were fabricated and that no actual election ccurred there. We also condemn the actual and attempted cases of vote-shaving/vote padding (dagdag-bawas) that have been carried out agfainst us and that are being medrely dismissed as “an honest mistake” or “a clerical error” without any thorough investigation.
