COTABATO CITY - The candidacy of Sultan Kudarat gubernatorial aspirant Datu Pax Ali Mangudadatu remains valid. On Friday, the Supreme Court issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) against the Commission on Elections (Comelec), which earlier canceled Mangudadatu's certificate of candidacy (COC) for allegedly failing to meet the one-year residency requirement. Copies of the TRO were shared with members of the local media Friday night. "Datu Pax Ali Mangudadatu's candidacy remains valid, legal, and legitimate," Mangudadatu's lawyer, Cyrus Torrena, said in an interview Saturday. Datu Pax Ali is running to succeed his father, Governor Suharto Mangudadatu, and will be up against Sharifa Akeel, the wife of his uncle, Maguindanao Rep. Esmael Mangudadatu. Suharto and Esmael are cousins. Akeel and two others sought Mangudadatu's disqualification, claiming false material representation in his COC. They said the gubernatorial bet indicated he is a resident of Lutayan town at the time of filing of the COC in October 2021 while he was still the mayor of Datu Abdullah Sangki, Maguindanao. Mangudadatu countered that he already resigned as mayor and moved to Lutayan as early as May last year. The Supreme Court gave all parties a non-extendable 10-day period to comment on the TRO. Torrena said the TRO remains in effect until the Supreme Court issues a new decision. He noted that Mangudadatu's name is still on the official ballot and will not be deemed invalid or stray because of the TRO. The Comelec denied Mangudadatu's motion for reconsideration on the cancellation of his COC with a vote of 4-2 on May 2, upholding the decision of the 1st Division. Akeel and her counsel were unavailable for comment as of posting time. (PNA) }

Commissioner George Garcia said in a television interview Monday that the canvassing of results of the 12 winning senators and a still undetermined number of party-list groups may end by May 15. "We can already proclaim the senators or party-list winners at the latest May 16," he said. The Comelec en banc will sit as the National Board of Canvassers. Garcia is certain though that the winners in the local elections will be known hours after the voting precincts have closed. "On May 9, we can only proclaim the mayor and vice mayor. Early the following day, we can next proclaim the congressman, governor, vice governor, and Sangguniang Panlalawigan," he said. The campaign period will end on May 7. On election day, the voting period will be from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Meanwhile, the Comelec en banc upheld the decision of the First Division to cancel the certificate of candidacy (COC) of Datu Pax Ali Mangudadatu for governor of Sultan Kudarat. Based on the decision, the respondent did not present new issues that could merit a reversal of the earlier ruling. The case to cancel the COC was filed by Sharifa Akeel Mangudadatu, who said Ali falsely stated material facts like not declaring that he is the incumbent mayor of the Municipality of Datu Abdullah Sangki. He also said he was a resident of Purok Garden, Tamnag, Lutayan, Sultan Kudarat for a period of one year and eight months when his actual period of residency was shorter. "Respondent signed his COC and subscribed and swore to the veracity of his declarations therein, indicating that his false representations are deliberate, and will effectively mislead the electorate on his qualifications as Governor of Sultan Kudarat," the decision read.
