Evolving nature of campaign tactics and strategies

It is more fun criticizing

It is really a time for evolution and innovation.  The campaign strategies and techniques hve radically changed in the Philippine setting.   Perhaps since 2016

It used to be campaign sorties:   house to house, miting de avance, meeting with the purok campaign leaders vote buying, cheating, terrorism

But now modern technologies are at work

1.  Use of social media:

     YT

     Face book

     IG and more

2.  Through these media you have:

     1.  YT of rallies and caravan

     2.  Trolls to create content for the favored candidate, or neutralize their accucastions;

     3.  Influencers:    Justice Carpio, Fmr Senate Pres Enrile, 

3.  Expensive  events:

   

     1.  Caravans

     2   Events/rallies

     3.  With generous t shirts and allowances

4.  Surveys contra surveys

    1.  SWS Publicus, OCTA, and own spontaneous surveys

    2.  Interviews of citizens at YT

 5.  Disruption of election results via Smartmatic and Comelec

Its two weeks to go. Whoever used the best combination of activities and resources will surely win

But fear factors are introduced Various scenarios are published:

     1.  CCP is allegely advising and supporting  VP Robredo

     2.  Scenarios:

          1.  BBM wins, but is DQ's either at Comelec and SD is promoted as Pres 

               BBM camp causes destabilization campaign

         2   LR wins and the BBM SD causes destablization

         3.  If there is trouble, PDU3 declares Martial law, CCP NDF joins the fray

Sayang sana we conduct this peacefully.  We are engaged in legal democtratic processes disrupt  our peace and progress

Should Comelec Chairman Andres Bautista resign or wait for impeachment

A new tele serya is now in  town.   The wife of  Commissioner Andres Bautista has in public in social media and TV interviews has accused husband Andy of corruption and ill gotten wealth (under declaration of SALN of only P200+ million but in reality has over a billion. She has amassed documents:   passbooks, payslips  of alleged ghost employees while Chair of PCGG, alleged commission from Smartmatic, sharing of referral fees from Divinagracia Law Office.

Chairman Bautista has impeccable credentials.  He graduated law from Ateneo Law School as valedictorian.  Took of Masters of Law at Harvard. He is a member of both Philippine and US bars.  He became country President of Kuok Properties, which is in charge of Shangri La.  He became dean of FEU Institute of Laws, became President of  Dean of Law Schools.  He also served as head of PCGG replacing Commissioner Camilo Sabio.  He became nominee for SC, but lost out to Ma. Lourdes Sereno.  He eventually was invited by Pres. Noy Aquino to head Comelec  Fast Facts about Comelec Commissioner Andy Bautista



If Ms. Bautista can prove her allegations, chairman Andy is in for a big trouble.  He has all ready in several interviews denied allegations

Meanwhile, the wife Patricia wants 50% of the alleged loot or P600,000,000.  How strange. If the money as divulged by her are ill gotten, she gets none of this;  the govt will have to forfeit the ill gotten wealth.  All ready there are allegations from the Chairman Bautista of infidelity from Tish the wife.  Some people allege that her partner in business is her bf.  People are interested in the marriage spat side, rather than on the political issue    Wife denies alleged affair with ex model Alvin Lim


Quiet life of Tish Bautista from Inquirer  The mother of Patricia however is estranged from Tish, and sides with Any)

Chairman Bautista would like to see this settled for the sake of their children (4)  Trisha on her part has Lawyer Martin Loon a very young lawyer and Kapunan (the champion for ladies rights) as her legal adviser. It   Tish has gone to no less than Pres DU30 to make sumbong on Andy.  Du30 does not want to be drawn into this controversy.   (It was alleged that wife of fmr Senator Bongbong Marcos and Tish were college classmates, which as denied)

Divinagracia law office has issued an announcement that its office is ready to file charges for the fabrication of stories against its office  From Abogado - Nilo Divina to press charges

How can some wives be stupid to destroy their husbands?   Or even commit financial suicide?  She gets nothing is all the money of chairman can be proven ill gotten.  Wives have forgotten that as per scriptures, they must serve their husbands since biblically, women came from the ribs of man. Biblically, women have but one mission to bear children and please their husband.  Too much women's lib.

This story simply proves that too much money corrupts.  It can make people crazy too.  (Whether it applies to Andy or his spouse)

As of now, the whole country, the electoral body, a constitutional body is in limbo.   Pity the children of Andy and Tish.   The lady is a hypocrite by saying that she is doing this for her children.  She is doing this for her greed.


P.S.     Former Chair Andy was impeached at Congress late this month, moments after he filed his resignation effective December.  Last Monday, the President accepted his resignation.   the impeachmentis not moot and academic.  The unstoppable wife and the lawyer, bent  on getting at Andy said they will file plunder case vs estranged husband

Did the massive disenfranchisement of voters alter the results of election last May 2016

Electoral Fraud from Manila Times

I was talking to several people yesterday and they said for the first time ever they were unable to vote.  The alleged hacking of the Comelec voters list could have altered the voters list resulted in about 6 million voters disenfranchised.

Coupled with the changing of the hastag by a Smartmatic programmer on the election day itself, one can conclude that VP Candidate Bong2 Marcos has the right to protest.  Who says AES is infallible?  It is easier to cheat with AES.  It makes voting easier but not cheat proof.
