Manolo, it’s CoTAbato (as in kutang bato) and NOT CoTObato (as in kutong bato).

Namfrel is so reliable that for a period back there, they reported La Union numbers as Maguindanao numbers. Yeba!!!!

COMELEC spokeperson james jimenez in his phone interview on Magandang Umaga Pilipinas today seemed to all but accuse the media of having a plan to condition the minds of the electorate to the opposition win by presenting the results of the media count (whose data, of course, is from the raw data at the precinct level). he pretty much confirmed that the precinct level data is raw and that to be “official” the data has to be “processed” through the lawyers of the candidates.

strange that we’re not supposed to look at raw data.

Election results show that an Arroyo endorsement would be a kiss of death particularly to candidates without a genuine track record to speak of. the real reason for Lkas or Kampi running unopposed is the lack of strong political parties in many areas because MalacaÃƒÂ±ang has managed to hold hostage incumbents, or else. Many alliances were also destroyed by the so-called transactional leadership of the President. I hope that the enthusiasm, vigilance and critical thinking of the youth as shown by the results would flourish to redem the nation from the shame it finds itself in these times.

Can’t blame jimenez’s frustration. Thing is, everybody knows what brought on this credibility problem: hello garci. well maybe not everybody. I bet bencard doesn’t know that.

I thought that the tally by now will show Roco commanding a lead over Trillanes.

Assuming effects of cheating don’t pollute the data, from the rankings coming from different parts of the country, it will be interesting to find out whether the class-divide trumps the rural-urban divide or vice-versa, (or whether such demarcations are even applicable).

Trillanes is fourth on that list. FOURTH! He’s even beating Kiko Pangilinan.
