MARCOLETA AT MALETA: COMELEC CHAIRMAN TAUHAN NI DUTERTE!

The decision of Commission on Elections (COMELEC) that Rodante Marcoleta committed no election offense regarding his disclosure of contributions in his SOCE has fueled speculation that COMELEC Chairman George Garcia is aligned with the Duterte camp. Questions are now being raised about whether political pressure influenced the ruling, how the Duterte camp may have affected Garcia’s position, and what response Liza Araneta-Marcos might take if she views the decision as a betrayal. Another issue being discussed is whether Garcia could eventually face impeachment proceedings.
