[Title] => GMA taking her time on Comelec nominees
[Summary] => President Arroyo is taking her own sweet time in going over the evaluation of the nominees recommended to fill up two vacancies in the Commission on Elections (Comelec).
Mrs. Arroyo, who is seeking a full six-year term in the May 10 elections, said "there is no deadline" for her and explained why it is not urgent to name the two new Comelec appointees.
"I have to study my choices. I have to look at their individual qualifications," Mrs. Arroyo told a crowd in Tiaong, Quezon during her visit there yesterday.

[Title] => Arroyo boys to have numbers in Comelec
[Summary] => The Arroyo administration could well have the numbers in the Commission on Elections (Comelec) soon.
Comelec Commissioners Luzviminda Tancangco and Ralph Lantion are stepping down today, potentially shifting the balance of influence on the commission’s decisions in favor of the administration.
The end of the terms of Tancangco and Lantion would pave the way for President Arroyo to appoint two more commissioners to the poll body, bringing to five the number of her appointees in the seven-member Comelec.

[Title] => A ‘strange’ delay in the Comelec motion could junk FPJ’s run
[Summary] => Unless Chairman Ben Abalos of the Commission on Elections bestirs himself and stops dragging his feet on an urgently pending "motion for reconsideration", the next thing thrown at him will be in the form of J’Accuse.
Accused of what? Of partisanship in maneuvering, by his delaying tactics, the rejection of the candidacy of Fernando Poe, Jr. If this suspected "plot" succeeds, the credibility of the Comelec will go down to sub-zero.

[Title] => Abalos says he will not resign despite Supreme Court setback
[Summary] => Amid calls for his resignation, Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman Benjamin Abalos said yesterday he will not step down because of a "higher calling" to attend to the needs of the commission.
Various groups, including the influential Makati Business Club (MBC), have been urging Abalos and Commissioner Luzviminda Tancangco to resign following the Supreme Court (SC) decision junking the automated polling system the Comelec was trying to implement.
