Palace confident Comelec can resolve 'infighting' of commissioners
Malacañang expressed confidence that the Commission on Elections (Comelec) can resolve its internal issues using its own protocols.
Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles stated that the seven highest officials of Comelec are capable of addressing and resolving any internal concerns.
This statement comes as Comelec Commissioner Rowena Guanzon challenged Commissioner Aimee Ferolino to resign with her.
The challenge was issued due to reported delays in the release of the resolution on the disqualification case of presidential aspirant Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
Guanzon believes the integrity of Comelec is at stake due to these delays.
