Comelec deferssenators’ proclamationhome/News/Headlines/Comelec deferssenators’ proclamationTHE Commission on Elections (Comelec) deferred the expected proclamation of 12 winning senators on Tuesday to give way to the canvassing of votes from Washinton D.C., which represents more than 200,000 registered voters, its spokesman James Jimenez said. We will announce when,” said Jimenez in a press briefing. He said that even a “partial” proclamation was not being considered by the poll body but added that it may announce the date of the proclamation “tonight (Tuesday)”. Jimenez said on Monday that he was “pretty sure” that there would be a proclamation on May 21. He said the problem was the time difference between Washington D.C. and Manila.
