00:00Haste makes waste, and has led to a huge loss in time and resources for not-so-well-thought-out

00:05decisions to summarily bar candidates seeking to run for office in May for all the wrong

00:10reasons.

00:11Our Luisa Erizpe tells us more on the latest SE injunction on the Pobody's ballot printing

00:18that should be revised with the candidates they crossed out.

00:23The scheduled reprinting of the 2025 national and local ballots tomorrow will be delayed

00:28for another two to three days.

00:30This, after the Supreme Court issued another temporary restraining order, ordering the

00:35Comelec to include two additional names of candidates.

00:39One of them is Senatorial candidate Francis Leo Marcos, who was declared a nuisance candidate

00:44by the Comelec last November.

00:46And another is Noel Rosal, running as governor for Albay, but was eventually disqualified

00:52by the Comelec.

00:53Well, the court does consider the printing of the ballots, of course, but then it did

00:58remind the Comelec, in the case of Marquez, the case decided earlier that the Comelec

01:05should also be aware that in disqualifying candidates, there is a big chance that these

01:11candidates are going to be bringing the issue before the Supreme Court, and that the Supreme

01:16Court would need time to actually resolve their cases.

01:20It's really up to the Comelec how they will implement the orders.

01:24Now, we are not yet printing the ballots, and therefore, if there will be a change again,

01:29then we will comply definitely.

01:31Wholeheartedly, we will comply with the directive of the Supreme Court.

01:35The Comelec said, though this is another delay in their preparations, it will be easier for

01:40them to include the names of Marcos and Rosal in their database, because they have fixed

01:45the system allowing for this feature.

01:47The Comelec's target is to reprint the ballots on Friday.

02:01The Comelec also assured the date of the election won't be delayed.

02:04As of now, the Supreme Court still has 13 pending petitions for senatorial and local

02:21candidates, and there are also 22 for party-list groups which are in the priority agenda of

02:27the High Court.

02:28From People's Television Network, Luisa Erizpe, for Balitang Pambansa.
