Poll watchdog calls party list selection a mockery 0 SHARES Share it! “The party-list group 1AAAP has as its first nominee the daughter of former House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez. “Meanwhile, party-list groups like Manggagawa Partylist, Aksyon Health Workers and People Surge organized by Yolanda victims were disqualified from the partylist race. These groups were organized by the marginalized sectors themselves as evidenced by their nominees,” Kontra Daya said. The poll watchdog asked the COMELEC to further review the appeals of party-list groups, particularly the ones whose nominees indeed represent their respective sectors.
