POLITICAL parties and those who have submitted their certificates of candidacy have until Dec. 10 to substitute or withdraw their candidacy, the provincial election officer said yesterday.
Misamis Oriental Election Supervisor Carlito Ravelo told the Gold Star Daily the deadline for a candidate’s withdrawal or substitution has been set because the Commission on Elections (Comelec) will start printing the official ballots by Dec. 11.
“Apan sugod sa Dec. 11 hangtod sa adlaw sa election dili na pwede ang si bisan kinsa mo-substitute,” said Ravelo.
He said all the names of the candidates for next year’s election—from the presidential down to the municipal and city councilors hopefuls from across the country—would be printed on Comelec’s official ballots.
“Ang mo-substitute dapat pareho og apelyido ug partido sa hulipan aron dili ma-usab ang nasulat nang daan sa balota,” said Ravelo.
