Alyansa campaign chief Tiangco tells overseas Pinoys: 'Your votes matter more than ever'
The administration-backed Senate slate, Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas, is urging overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) to vote for leaders who will protect and empower them.
Navotas City Rep. Toby Tiangco, Alyansa's campaign manager, stressed that OFW votes are crucial, stating, "Your vote matters now more than ever," to address challenges like contract violations and family separation.
He encouraged overseas voters to verify their status and participate in the upcoming absentee voting, emphasizing that "Boto ninyo, boses ninyo" (Your vote is your voice).
The voting period for the 1.24 million eligible overseas Filipinos will run from April 13 to May 12, during which they can elect senators and party-list representatives.
This figure represents a 26.84 percent decrease from the 1.62 million eligible voters in 2022.
