THE Commission on Elections should review its resolution allowing government officials to remain in office after accepting party-list nominations, several members of the House of Representatives said on Wednesday.
“Elections should be fair. There should b no advantage or misuse of government power to influence the outcome,” he said. The Comelec, through its budget sponsor Lanao del Sur Rep. Zia Alonto said that the rationale behind this is because party-lists are elected as a group, not based on the people who may represent them.
“I suspect that there will be many incumbent government officials who are planning on running for party-lists. I think that’s unfair, unjust, and illegal,” he said.
