00:07 Good evening, Kapuso!

00:13 Did the candidate you voted for win the barangay elections yesterday?
00:17 What if he has a tie or a tie?
00:20 Do you know if his victory could be just because he was in a barrier?
00:25 [music]
00:36 Every election, the candidates who run for office are the winners.
00:39 It's in the hands of the voters.
00:40 But, if the candidates are able to get an even and even vote,
00:44 their victory could be just because they were in a barrier?
00:48 [music]
00:51 Brother Kim, how can a tie be broken in an election using a barrier?
00:55 Brother Kim, what now?
00:56 Brother Kim, what now?
00:58 According to Section 240 of the Omnibus Election Code,
01:01 if the candidates get a tie or even vote,
01:04 the victory could be by drawing of lots.
01:07 But, what's common is toss coin.
01:09 The procedure of the law, it shall be decided by luck.
01:12 This is done by drawing of lots.
01:15 It's like a popular notion that it's a toss coin,
01:18 but actually it's not supported by the law and the Comic-Like Resolution.
01:21 Nonetheless, if everyone recognizes the result, then it's okay.
01:26 This happened in 2018 in the first youth election
01:28 when there was a tie in the vote of the S.K. Chairman in Barangay Maunlad in Puerto Princesa City in Palawan.
01:34 In 2016, the decision of the two candidates who tied in the vote in Mayor of Bukawi, Bulacan was also a toss coin.
01:41 And not only the winners of the candidates are the ones who are in the story.
01:45 The choice of the name of the largest city in Oregon, America, Portland, was also a toss coin in 1845.
01:53 The coin toss or coin flip started by the Roman Empire.
01:56 It was called heads or ships.
01:58 The coin toss is used now in elections and in sports.
02:01 But the other side of the coin, according to a pre-print study in the Netherlands,
02:05 the result of the coin toss is not 50-50.
02:07 After 350,757 coin flips were made, it was found that 50.8% of the time,
02:15 the coin will land on the side where it is facing before it is flipped using the coin toss.
02:19 There is a high chance that you will not be able to flip this coin.
02:22 So how big is it?
02:30 The one-ton Australian kangaroo of Perth Mint in Australia holds the Guinness World Record for the largest barry in the world.
02:38 The barry has a face value of 1 million Australian dollars or more than 36 million pesos,
02:44 has a diameter of 2 feet and 7.49 inches, and weighs 1,012 kilograms.
02:51 It's heavy.
02:52 Meanwhile, to find out what's behind the viral news, tweet or just comment #KuyaKim.
