Just 5 hours after the polls closed last Monday, Comelec released figures that say 57% of votes has been counted. Noynoy led Erap by over 3 million votes. Binay led by close to 800k votes over Mar.
As more votes are counted and transmitted, one would expect the lead to widen. It happened in the case of Noynoy. With 90% of votes in, his lead is now over 5 million. But in Binay and Mar's case, the lead just hovered around that 800k hump. After 3million votes and an 800k lead, Binay just coasted along. All the way to the finish?
Nobody cared much when Mon Tulfo wrote about the wife of a candidate for a national position who found out that her husband has a fashion model for a girlfriend. It was almost a dead giveaway as it mentioned that the photos were given to the candidate’s wife by a close rival
of their son who is aspiring for a local post. Plus, the second item in that column was about the mayoralty contest in Makati being a a three-cornered, close fight among Binay's son and 2 others.
Now cheesy photos of Chiz's vice president surfaced on the Internet. Faced with these, Binay himself has admitted that he had an extramarital affair. In the spirit of transparency, it's time for Chiz to update his commercial endorsement of Binay - "Ang bise president ko may B - betkabs! Ang bise presidente mo ba meron din?".
