Comelec issues finality certificate on Duterte Youth disqualification

The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has issued a certificate of finality and entry of judgment regarding the disqualification of the Duterte Youth party-list.

Comelec Chairperson George Erwin Garcia stated that the 30-day period for finality has passed without the Supreme Court issuing a temporary restraining order.

Garcia explained that the issuance means the Comelec's decision to disqualify the party-list is now considered final from their perspective.

The poll body has not yet deliberated on how the three seats vacated by the party-list will be filled.

Duterte Youth has not yet responded to requests for comment regarding the Comelec's issuance of the certificate of finality.
