MANILA, Philippines (Updated 3:31 p.m.) — The Commission on Elections First Division dismissed the petition for disqualification filed by a group of Ilocanos against presidential bet Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., clearing the survey frontrunner of the last legal challenges in his candidacy at least in the division level of the poll body.

 

News5 on Wednesday reported that First Division denied the petition filed by Pudno nga Ilokano group due to lack of merit.

 

“As it now stands, Respondent possess all the qualifications and none of the disqualifications under the 1987 Constitution and relevant laws. As such, the dismissal of this Petition is in order,” part of the ruling dated April 20 read.
