PASALORD launches voter ed campaign against vote buying
An inter-faith group called PASALORD Prayer Movement launched a voter's education campaign against vote buying and election abuses ahead of the 2025 midterm polls on Tuesday.
The group's founder, Bing Pimentel, emphasized the importance of safeguarding ballots as equal commodities for all Filipinos and warned about the negative impact of vote-buying practices.
PASALORD aims to mobilize Filipinos to pray for clean elections and choose leaders with good character, competence, and courage, stressing that faith can change political environments.
Legal Network for Truthful Elections (LENTE) founder Christian Monsod highlighted the importance of quality votes and questioned why the poor do not take control of government through ballots.
LENTE's executive director Ona Caritos stressed the urgency of blocking the transfer of Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections from 1925 to 2029 to prevent prolonged terms in power.
