The camp of Liberal Party (LP) vice presidential bet Senator
Manuel Roxas II said on Tuesday it is planning to file a protest before the presidential electoral tribunal so the almost three million nullified votes for vice president would be counted.
The Roxas camp had pushed for a random manual audit of the null votes for vice president because of the close race between the LP bet and Makati City Mayor Jejomar Binay. Roxas trailed Binay by some 600,000 votes last Monday night with only votes from Lanao Del Sur yet to be refelected in the official canvass.
Joey Tenefrancia, counsel for Roxas, said that his camp would wait for the final report of the House joint canvassing committee "before making any statement on the whole process." - manila bulletin
