Malinis man ang halalan sa kanilang presinto, duda pa rin sila kung maka-canvass ang boto nila. Ganyan na kabasag ang tiwala ng madla sa sistemang halalan.

At bakit hindi magkakaganyan? E, ang Comelec na dapat bantay ng gawi at imahe ng halalan ang mismong promotor ng gulo?

[Summary] => First, the Opposition puts up two candidates to adjoin a sis and a dad in the Senate. Then, two Administration factions pit a vice lord against an illegal quarrier respectively as gubernatorial bets. You’d think you’ve seen the crassest, craziest in Philippine politics. But there’s even worse.

[Summary] => Democracy runs on the currency of public opinion. Surveys make sure that leaders and other stakeholders of democracy are kept up-to-date with the public pulse on important and relevant issues.
