Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. “needs to concede and accept his defeat with grace.” In her comment and opposition filed with the Presidential Electoral Tribunal (PET) which is composed of all Supreme Court (SC) justices, Robredo said Marcos’ motion to reconsider the tribunal’s decision that dismissed his election protest “must be denied for utter lack of merit.” Last Feb. 16, in a unanimous vote of 15 justices, the PET upheld the victory of Robredo in the 2016 vice presidential election as it dismissed Marcos’ protest.
