The Presidential Electoral Tribunal (PET) on Monday commenced its manual recount and revision of ballots from three pilot provinces identified by by former senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. in his electoral protest against VP Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo. These are all from Leni Robredo’s home province of Camarines Sur, Negros Oriental and Iloilo.

On the first day of the recount process by the Presidential Electoral Tribunal, Marcos alleged irregularities after they've discovered that some ballots from Bato, Camarines Sur were wet and distorted and that audit logs were not in their ballot boxes.

This issue has been running around the social media and has earned different stand point from the netizens.

Well known social media influencer Krizette Laureta Chu - a Duterte loyalist, went on thru her social media account and gave her opinion on the manual recount controversy.

Krizette said in the post that she herself is not a supporter of the Marcoses but what she really hate the most is the fact that "Leni Robredo and her lawyer thinks its OK to explain away the wet ballots as "nabasa" from the storm.'

"I think this is the political equivalent of "the dog ate my homework." If the excuse weren't so tragic, it'd be funny. Parang bata lang. "Tara basain natin para di nila mabasa tapos bahala na yung digital copy." Ganon?"

She further said that Marcos supporters deserves to have thier votes to be accounted as they belives in the essence of democracy.

"Pinaghirapan nila yon e. Pumila sila. Naarawan. Namasahe, Nangampanya. Naghirap. Nagsayang ng load makipag away sa FB. Kahit hindi nalang para kay Bong bong, yung mga tao na lang na nag effort because they believed in democracy. They believed that their vote will be counted."

Chu also beleives that VP Leni and the Comelec will not give respect on how the democracy works to the people who supports and voted for Bongbong Marcos and will not even care to give a fair fight to the on-going recount process.

"I think the Comelec and the sitting VP do not respect them enough to give them a clean election and sadly, a clean recount."

Robredo won the vice presidency by just over 260,000 votes, and Marcos and his supporters claimed that the system was rigged to favor the vice president, who was the administration candidate in 2016 elections.

I hate the Marcoses and the idea of BBM as a VP, but I hate more the fact that Leni Robredo and her lawyer thinks its OK to explain away the wet ballots as "nabasa" from the storm.

Kahit anong pihit ko ng explanation, di ko talaga gets. The Comelec said they were given to the tribunal ng maayos so paano? So if pwede pala i recount digitally, ano pa't dinala dala yang mga ballot boxes na pagka bigat bigat? Tsaka bakit si Atty Macalintal ang defensive sa nabasang ballot? Sya ba nag saboy ng tubig doon?

I think this is the political equivalent of "the dog ate my homework." If the excuse weren't so tragic, it'd be funny. Parang bata lang. "Tara basain natin para di nila mabasa tapos bahala na yung digital copy." Ganon?

Yung, fine, the Marcoses do not deserve the love and devotion people have for them (fight me), pero the people--even if I think they are misguided-- deserve naman for their votes to be counted.

Pinaghirapan nila yon e. Pumila sila. Naarawan. Namasahe, Nangampanya. Naghirap. Nagsayang ng load makipag away sa FB. Kahit hindi nalang para kay Bong bong, yung mga tao na lang na nag effort because they believed in democracy. They believed that their vote will be counted. Because that's the essence of democracy, right?

I think the Comelec and the sitting VP do not respect them enough to give them a clean election and sadly, a clean recount.

No matter if i fear a BBM Vice Presidency (and I do, so very very very very much), I fear more a Vice President and a ruling party who makes a mockery of our democracy. Back to zero na naman tayo. Back to elites and our leaders manipulating everything for their gain.

(Not that this won't happen during a Marcos VPresidency, but it will happen with the express approval of the people, vis a vis Leni Robredo forcing herself on a country who did not really vote for her. HIRAP!)

Nakakaloka. Mag recount na lang kasi ng maayos kasi even if Leni wins this recount, her win will--no thanks to the wet ballots--still be viewed negatively. Is she OK with being seen as the fake VP for the rest of her term? So if she's fake VP in the eyes of many forever, wala na bang katapusang tong gulo na to? Kasi gusto ko na matapos to. And I was counting on the results of the recount to bring everyone closure, but with this new plot twist, it seems like the second highest position in the land will forever be fraught with conflict.

Kairita.

A rock and a hard place, the devil and the deep blue sea, a cross and a sword. Morton's fork.
