Comelec, pinag-iingat ang mga kandidato sa isang grupo na nag-aalok umano ng tiyak na panalo sa 2025 elections
Transcript
00:00Candidates are being careful in the 2025 elections because a syndicate is now revolving around the winner in exchange for a million-peso prize.
00:12Luisa Erispe has the news.
00:15Who are the candidates who don't want to win?
00:20That's why early in the morning, a group of people surrounded the candidates who will run in the 2025 national and local elections.
00:29According to the Commission on Elections, the prize is from P50 to P70 up to P100 million in exchange for a sure win in the elections.
00:39A few months ago, I said that in the past elections, there were always syndicates or even non-syndicates, ordinary people who have contacts in the Comelec.
00:51They can beat you even if you don't campaign, you just have to pay P50 million, P70 million, P100 million.
00:57I hope you will arrest all of them. I hope we won't be fooled by those who say it's not true.
01:06The Comelec said that the group is bragging that they can manipulate the automated counting machines, which is impossible according to the Commission.
01:15The group said that it cannot be done because the machines used in the elections are just scanners.
01:21The transmission is transparent to everyone. That's why the group said that the Comelec is now urging the NBI to punish the syndicates that are manipulating the candidates in Visayas and Mindanao.
01:36Don't believe those who say that you just want money. That's why we wrote to the NBI. We've been asking for help from the National Bureau of Investigation for a long time.
01:46I hope these people will be more careful.
01:49The Comelec called on the candidates not to be afraid to speak to them if someone approaches their offices like this.
01:56Aside from the candidates, the Comelec also monitored the party lists that are using substitutions for their representative in Congress.
02:08The Comelec said that for the upcoming elections, they will restrict the list of those who can substitute.
02:16We are thinking that if it will be issued or not, it would be good. We are requiring the submission of 10 list of nominees for each political party or organization or party.
02:29Ten. After that, there will be no more addition. There are too many. There are too many people who are being manipulated.
02:37Let's admit that it could be a loophole of the law.
02:39Aside from this, in the campaign, the Comelec also strictly prohibited the use of artificial intelligence or deepfake audio or video of the candidates that could damage the credibility of the election.
02:51They also issued a law that prohibits this.
