MANILA, Philippines — A total of 76 names were included in the senatorial race for the May 2019 midterm elections, including former Senator Sergio Osmena III and re-electionist Senator Koko Pimentel.
However, out of the said number, Commission on Elections Spokesperson James Jimenez told reporters on Saturday that 13 of them still have pending cases.
“Note that there are 13 names included in this list which are still pending finality. Should a certificate of finality be issued, these 13 names will be stricken off the list,” Jimenez said.
“The 13 names will be identified this afternoon, to give time for the certificates of finality to be issued,” he added. /jpv
