LENI GUSTONG GAWING SINUNGALING ANG PET!

LENI WITH HER LAWYERS

Gusto pang gawing SINUNGALING ni Leni Robredo ngayon ang Presidential Electoral Tribunal (PET).

In a story in http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/news/nation/650570/robredo-insists-on-validity-of-votes-on-ballot-ovals-shaded-25/story/?top_picks&order=3 , Leni was reported as having filed a motion for reconsideration of the PET ruling for a 50 percent threshold in the shading of ballots, Leni cited a supposed communication from the Commission on Election (Comelec) to the PET in 2016, informing the Court that while voters are instructed to shade ballot ovals fully, "the shading threshold was set at about 25% of the oval space."

She said this means the PET knew of the 25 percent threshold, CONTRARY (emphasis mine) to its earlier decision saying that it was "not aware" of any resolution from the Comelec.

Notice, people: Leni DID NOT CITE SPECIFICs of the supposed Comelec communication to the Comelec – date prepared, signatory, date received at PET and recipient and tracking number. In contrast, here are DETAILED EXCERPTS from the PET ruling denying Leni’s motion for a 25 percent threshold (http://forumphilippines.blogspot.com/2018/04/mas-marunong-ka-pa-sa-pet-macalintal.html):

"Protestee's (Leni) claim that the Commission on Elections (Comelec) as purportedly confirmed by the Random Manual Audit Guidelines and Report applies the 25% threshold percentage in determining a valid vote is INACCURATE (emphasis mine)."The Court is not aware of any Comelec Resolution that states the applicability of a 25% threshold; and the Tribunal cannot treat the Random Manual Audit Guidelines and Report as proof of the threshold used by the Comelec.” The PET cited Comelec Resolution No. 8804, as amended by Comelec Resolution No. 9164, which it said does not mention the 25 percent threshold sought by Robredo.

"Prior to the amendment in Resolution No. 9164, Rule 15, Section 6 of Resolution No. 8804 states that any shading less than 50% shall not be considered a valid vote,"  which is consistent with PET rules. While the 2010 PET rules specify the 50-percent threshold, the 2018 Revisor's Guide "did not impose a new threshold."

The PET also said Leni’s claim of a "systematic reduction" of her votes with the 50 percent threshold set by the PET was  "without basis and shows a “MISUNDERSTANDING (emphasis mine) of the revision process." Ballots under question, under the rules, will be marked for examination by the PET.

DETALYADO ang PET ruling. WALANG DETALYE ang supposed communication na sinasabi ni Leni. Pero PET pa ngayon ang CONTRARY to its decision, ha Leni?  Take it away, boys and girls.   (Blocked pa ako from posting in groups na hindi ako admin or moderator.  Please share this, guys. Thanks). 30
