MANILA, Philippines (Updated 3:11 p.m.) — Veteran elections lawyer Romulo Macalintal has filed challenged the constitutionality of the law postponing the December 2022 barangay polls before the Supreme Court.

 

On Monday, Macalintal filed a Petition for Certiorari asking the tribunal to declare as unconstitutional Republic Act 11935 or the act that postponed the December 2022 Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections (BSKE).

 

Following President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. signing of the law on October 10, the BSKE will be conducted on the last Monday of October 2023. Subsequent BSKEs will be held every three years.
