Third district Rep. Adam Jala and Provincial Election Supervisor Veronico Petalcorin denied allegations of “dagdag-bawas†carried out against former governor Rene Relampagos who ran for congressman in the 3rd district during the May elections.
Rep. Jala, in an interview with the Chronicle yesterday said there is no evidence that his camp coerced the Comelec to cheat in the May elections.
The newcomer solon asked why Relampagos only raised these issues now and did not file an official protest at the House of Representatives Electoral Tribunal (HRET).
Answering allegations that his camp was responsible for “dagdag-bawas†operations in the towns of Sierra Bullones and Loay, Rep. Jala pointed out that he would only recognize the official results of the polls that declared him winner and the fact that no official protest was filed by Relampagos, is proof that the latter do not have strong evidence to prove his allegations.
