                    [Summary] => 

Some party-list groups turned their Labor Day celebration into a miting de avance to promote their groups’ candidacy and even the politicians they support in the coming May 14 elections.

It is still just a week into the senatorial campaign and therefore too early to tell, but based on what has transpired so far, few senate bets are biting, if at all, at the bait Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia has dangled in exchange for the support of her One Cebu Party.

Garcia, who is leading the fight against initiatives to break Cebu into four provinces, has promised to support any senatorial or congressional candidate who will sign a written commitment to fight the initiatives in case they are revived.
