Poll watchdog tells voters to not vote for political dynasty members 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Leslie Ann AquinoA poll watchdog group has discouraged voters from electing political dynasty members in the May 13 midterm polls. Democracy Watch Secretary General Claudette Guevara said political dynasties thrive in the country because people tolerate it. “Let us stop electing political dynasty members, who will just abuse the power vested in them while quality of social services decrease and Filipinos continuing to suffer,” said Guevara. The Anti-Political Dynasty bill (and all its different versions) has been passed from Congress to Congress since 1987 and still remains pending, she said.
