Comelec to resolve Marcos Jr. DQ cases after polls

The Commission on Elections (Comelec) will not be able to fully resolve disqualification cases against presidential aspirant Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. before the May 9 elections.

Comelec Chairman Saidamen Pangarungan stated that the poll body could not promulgate rulings on a weekend or holidays.

Pangarungan mentioned that he has signed rulings on three petitions and voted on a fourth case, which arrived later.

He decided to release all rulings simultaneously, but they were delayed due to the timing of the cases and the weekend.

Pangarungan promised that the resolutions on the four cases will be promulgated by Tuesday, May 10.
