The election campaign is now being heated up and a lot of developments are churning up:
1. Grace Poes DQ case at Comelec has been overturned by Supreme Court
This makes Grace Poe a very strong contender for presidency. However, she will be hounded by issues, again. see number 2.
2. There are publications that tell us that she sold a house in USA that is an enclave to the rich
Washington Post - Grace Poe lived in one of most Luxurious Homes In Fairfax County
From Rappler - what we know of Grace Poes US Property
4. Sen Santiago is not visible because of her health
5. Sec Mar Roxas is being dragged by controversy of over spending this early, and tuwad na daan ( Eliza Antonino as SSS commissioner.)
ang galing naman. Is she well connected to the good Sec
Pinoy trending - On Eliza Antonino
6. VP Binay is expecting a lot of flak these days: His son Jun Jun is being charged with wrongdoing at Ombudsman regarding the Makati City Hall Parking building
From Philstar - Ombudsman OKs filing of criminal cases vs Binay over overpriced City Hall building. Jun Jun Binay has been dismissed as City Mayor and replaced by Kit Pena. VP Binay started the project and turned this over to son. He is not likely to be charged being an impeachable government official
From Philstar:
The probe, acting on complaints on bidding irregularities and violations on the Makati project, started in September 2014, while the preliminary investigation began in March this year. The elder Binay oversaw the P2.28-billion carpark building project as Makati mayor, while his son took over after his tenure.
"Binay is being investigated for criminal acts committed while he was a city mayor and not as vice president," the Ombudsman added.
Jejomar Binay and Junjun Binay are each facing four counts of graft, six counts of falsification of public documents and a malversation charge.
The anti-graft body, however, noted that the elder Binay as vice president is an impeachable officer within the "investigatory power or jurisdiction of the Ombudsman."
Thus the presidential race is thrown into disarray. Binay, and Poe very strong contenders are hounded by these bad publicity.
Will Roxas be hurt by the Antonino and alleged over spending charges, use of govt vehicles in campaign?
So in case of Noel, who will take over? Drilon and Or Belmonte..
Is this a possibility?
