poll PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS 2022

[hit05]

I am hearing cries of despair, regret and  frustrations from the outcome of this elections.  However, just over 2 weeks ago, the lead was extraordinary, more than half favored BBM.  Leni could not even get past 30%.  The opposition was disorganized and candidates were being forced to abandon the race publicly. This created a backlash. Non BBM candidates turned against Leni because they were punlicly insulted to give up. Instead of uniting the opposition, the opposition turned against the pink party.

To help maintain support, the Pink party used a parallel poll. This poll showed they lead, Of course during her birthday bash, the 10 million shortfall was a problem for Leni supporters and the pressure was on pinkies to force people to vote their choice rather than exercise some kind of propriety by understanding that individuals got the right to exercise free choice. The instruction to influence people by forcing one's choice upon another was terribly wrong and inconsistent with freedom.

Considering the evidence that the pinkies have made poor decisions for this election, today there is effort to force an audit as if they got a lead ever since, which is quite far from the Truth. Do they understand that the evidence is strong they had made too many mistakes?

Let's see how this goes....

I'm guessing:

Imee will be senate pres

Romualdez will be speaker of the house

Not a fan of a BBM presidency but I acknowledge his experience as being a former Cong/Governor at the very least.

Unlike this ulupong- Robin Padilla, na former actor and former X-Convict, with 0 experience in governance, didn't even run as a councilor- now turned #1 Senator in this election garnering 26 Million fcking votes as of this moment!

Imagine 26 Million Filipinos! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
Proud to say I'm not one of those 26M

I voted for Robin Padilla, I am proud of it.  

Yes, he is an x-con because of our gun ban rules, I hope he does something to change it.

First hour of stock trading May 10, 2022: All shares quickly went into the red. That afternoon, news that Lehman put the Philippines at the bottom of SEA investment prospects.

I wonder why.

Sounds familiar ? 

A few other chilling probabilities . Imelda will be pardoned. The estate tax claim against the Marcoses will be allowed to expire. PCGG will be disbanded. There will be blatant attempts to revise history. State control of media will be put in place. Opposition will be harassed and jailed. The Supreme Court , Congress and the Senate will be rubber stamps to whatever Marcos Jr. wants. Cronyism will be back. Kleptocracy will again rule the day. The economy starts sinking. Foreign debt will rise to even higher levels. Investors pull out.

The country and its citizens suffer.

[eijipokeme]

Not a fan of Robin but at least most of my senatorial candidate is in.

Trouble is lurking before BBM is inaugurated, I suppose. Yet the market is often fickle and will look for the slightest of reason for volatility. 

[Gaston Le Foix]

Voted for Robin in the last minute

He's the onmy candidate with a doable project, and that's to translate all the laws into Tagalog. Which is realistic and attainable. If he keeps his word, then great! If he wants something else done, we'll be keeping tabs on him.

Tapos na ang election, magiging maayos lang talaga ang Pilipinas kung pagkatapos ng election ay sama sama tayong kikilos para sa ika uunlad ng bayan. 

Walang mangyayari sa ating bansa kung hindi at ayaw nating lumabas or bumitaw pamomolitika.

Sa ilalim ng demokrasya lagi pinapakinggan ang majority hindi kung ano ang tama o ang mali. Kahit na ito ay mali dapat natin irespecto dahil yan ang demokrasya. 

Kaya ganito tayo ngayon dahil sa lagi natin iniisip ang ating karapatan at nakakalimutan natin ang ating responsibilidad. Gusto natin lagi tayo ang nasusunod pero kahit ang traffic rules natin ayaw natin sundin kasi gusto natin laging "AKO ang tama mentality".

Siguro panahon na na pag-isipang mabuti at tingnan din ang atin sarili. May nagawa na ba ako para sa bansa ko bago isipin at husgahan ang ibang tao? 

Nakasama ako noon sa Panel na kausap ng COLGATE PALMOLIVE para pigilan ang pag alis nila ng operasyon dito sa bansa natin. Ang isa sa mga dahilan nila kaya sila umalis ay ang ating LABOR FORCE, lagi na lang daw silang nag sususpend ng production dahil sa mga strike hindi raw marunong MAKINIG AT UMINTINDI ang mga Filipino. Kaya na inisip ko tuloy kaylan ba nag simulang mag sarado at nagsi-alisan ang mga INDUSTRIYA at PAGAWAAN. At ang record: nasimula lang ng lumakas ang kilosan ng mga Mangagawa (KMU). Ang isang client ko sa Sta Rosa, nanalo lang ang KMU sa election ng labor Union nila lumipat na sa Vietnam, at ilang specialist na Pinoy lang ang dinala para turuan ang mga lokal sa Vietnam. Ibig sabihin nito hindi lang ang government natin ang problema tayo rin pala mga Pinoy. Hindi masamang magkaroon ng "Kilusan" pero dapat ito ay marunong umintindi at makiramdam. Hindi puedeng laging AKO dapat "TAYO" ang laging isipin.

Ang agenda ng mga kalaban ng bansa ay dapat mawalan ng trabaho ang mga tao at mananatiling mahirap ang mamamayan para tayo magalit sa ating gobyerno. Dahil madaling hikayatin ang mga galit para umaklas laban sa mga namumuno para magkaroon sila ng pagkakataong agawin ang pamunuan at yan ang hindi natin dapat hayaang mangyari.

Ano kaya kung tingnan din natin itong party-list system... Gawa rin tayo ng party-list para sa sector ng atin mga kaibigang nasa "Industriya" ng kaligayahan. Hehehe. Para tuloy ang LIGAYA natin

Just one day after the BBM win. The PAIN will be real.

America is loosing its grip as an international superpower, the war between Ukraine and Russia proves that.  Hell nilaglag nga nila ang Ukraine after making promise na tutulungan nila(US and NATO). 

Even USD is slowly not as a main source of trading currency.

[JackieM]

Investors would ALWAYS prefer Vietnam over the Philippines. The exudos of Factories and other industries from our country has started way before. Most of the companies that transferred its operation to other countries cited LABOR (manpower) as one of the reason. Labor is now too politicized and Labor Union, especially KMU, no longer listen to REASON. I believe KMU's agenda is not to negotiate but to "CLOSE" the company to gain ground and put most of the blame in our Government. I would be much easier for the REDs to convince people to raise arms against a democratic government with an impoverished population.

Sorry bro pero kulang info mo, if Tama pagkakatanda ko, he was involved in a hit and run case with a balut vendor and when he was flagged down dun sya nakitaan ng high-powered firearms. Robin even claimed na napagbayaran na nya yung kasalanan nya but then again he wasn't able to fully satisfy his sentence. He was a beneficiary of a revision ng batas regarding shortening ng imprisonment for possession of illegal firearms. Combined with a pardon from FVR kaya sya nakalaya. Now kung Anong gagawin nyang batas regarding possession of illegal firearms, di ko maisip ano gagawin nya about dun. Maghihigpit ba sya pero ipokrito kalalabasan nya nun Kasi nagbenefit sya sa pagpapababa ng sentensya. Kung mas luluwagan nya naman, good luck sa Pinas. Ngayon nga lang ang daming naglipana at ginagamit ng mga criminal. 

[wickedhappin3ss]

Hindi ako botante, and wala din ako masyado pinapanigan every election. Pero sana, since tapos na. Let the elected President try first. Siguro naman kahit si VP Leni ang nanalo, hindi din magiging perpektong Presidente. No one is. 

What we can all do right now, is to trust, na sana tama ang nakararami sa naging desisyon natin. 
Gaano naba tayo katagal sa ganitong gobyerno? Clearly hindi naman tayo pinanganak kahapon para lang mag diskusyon sa mga gantong bagay. Ang toxic kasi. Imbes na suportahan natin, Lalo natin ilulubog. 

Sana matapos na. And hopefully, may mangyaring maganda for the sake of Philippines.

Agree with this.

you can't judge a looming presidency simply due to a day of market downturn.

I take it as an alarming development. 

 It  simply says that financial experts maybe  are not confident about the integrity of Marcos Junior because of his family's long history of corruption .

When you apply for a loan with any bank they always look at your credit history before approving the loan and lending you the money .

Kung magpapahiram ka , magpapahiram ka ba sa magnanakaw?

I hope we agree on this .

Comrades , if Marcos Junior wants to create confidence in his integrity , he can start by paying the 203 Bn estate tax owed to the government and the Filipino people. Attached is a link to the SC decision that has been ruled with finality .

https://elibrary.judiciary.gov.ph/thebookshelf/showdocs/1/34897

He can also jail his mother who has been convicted of graft and corruption by the Sandiganbayan

Would anyone care to bet on the chances of this happening ?
