'Guanzon may still run as party-list nominee'
The Philippine Star
|November 22, 2024
Former poll commissioner Rowena Guanzon may still run as a party-list nominee in the May 2025 midterm elections despite a Supreme Court (SC) ruling declaring null and void her substitution as the first nominee of the P3PWD party-list, according to the Commission on Elections (Comelec).
Guanzon's bid to run again as the first nominee of Komunidad ng Pamilya, Pasyente at Persons with Disabilities party-list is not affected by the ruling, Comelec Chairman George Garcia said yesterday.
"She was nominated by the party-list. No one filed a petition to cancel her nomination. Therefore, she's still their number one nominee," he noted.
Garcia said the Comelec is no longer filing a motion for reconsideration and the new nominee will be proclaimed as soon as P3PWD submits the list.
