MANILA, Philippines — Pinabulaanan ni Commission on Elections­ (Comelec) chairman George Erwin Garcia ang inilutang ni Sen. Imee Marcos hinggil sa posibilidad na magkaroon ng “no-election” scenario sa 2028 upang pahabain ang termino ng kanyang kapatid na si Pang. Ferdinand Marcos Jr..

“No-el 2028 will not happen. It’s a mandate of the Constitution to have an election in that year… no contingency for a ‘No-el’ because the election is certain to happen,” paliwanag  ni Garcia.

Idinagdag din ng poll chief na sa ngayon ay sinisimulan na nila ang paghahanda para sa presi­dential election, kahit dalawang taon pa bago ang pagdaraos nito.

Pinag-aaralan na rin aniya nila kung paano io-automate ang halalan, gayundin ang muling pag­daraos ng voter registration at ang promulgas­yon ng rules and guidelines.

Magugunita na inismi­ran ni Pang. Marcos ang ‘no-el scenario’ ng kapatid habang tinawag naman itong ‘diversionary tactic’ ng Palasyo ng Malakanyang.
