The Final Cast

Finally, the winners in the race for municipal seats in Capul have been proclaimed. After initial confusion (brought about by the heat of the moment), the final tally is as follows:

Mayor : Atty. Ignacio Bandal - 2,854 votes

Vice Mayor: Ignacio Cascaño - 2,843 votes

Councilors:

1. Rene Pasco - 3,234
2. Letlet Catucod - 3,110
3. Dick Pelito - 3,106
4. Titit Castillo - 2,954
5. Momeng Ortego - 2,872
6. Ben Pernito - 2,664
7. Igning Magloyuan - 2,629
8. Marlon Mente - 2,624

It was 7-1 after all, in favor of the incumbent party. Igning Magloyuan was actually number 7 and Amos Esquillo was at No. 9 with 2,534 votes. Mrs. Milagros Manaog who was earlier touted to be 8th slid to No. 10 with 2,486 votes.

Ian Castillo had 2,770 votes while Jeffrey Suan had 2, 676.

This must be one of the most exciting elections Capul has ever had. Now, it’s time to get to work for the betterment of our beloved hometown.

    From the outcome, yung mayor at isang konsehal ang magka partido. The Vice Mayor and the 7 other councilors belong to another party. Sana naman magtulungan sila for a better Capul.

Tribu Mananguete: Landusan Boys

This was one of the entries for the school-based category. Coming from the Landusan National High School, the team was composed mainly of boys. Coached by Mr. Oniel Pelito, they wore coconut leaves woven like skirts as they simulated the tuba-gatherers. This group proved to be the most colorful and playful of the lot. And here are raw video clips of their performance.

Abaknon Festival: Tribu Paragmalli

If Brgy. San Luis brought crabs, this group brought a stand-out animal - the Pinoy beast of burden. But huge it may have been, it was not able to steal the thunder away from the real stars of the show - the street performers. This group won Best in Costume and Best in Performance Showcase for the barangay-based competition.

Editorial: A Future For Sale

Note: This post is the Administrator's take on how the recent elections went. Fair comments are welcome. From how I saw it, it was indeed an impressive election. It definitely was more peaceful than the most recent ones. Automation made the process exciting (or worrisome) but at the same time challenging. Truly, it was heartwarming to see people brave the punishing summer heat and the tiring wait just to be able to cast their votes. There is no doubt in my mind that the results reflected the Abaknons’  true democratic will. However, why they voted for whom is an entirely different issue.  I wish to think that in the final analysis, they did vote with the thought of what’s best for Capul. But even with that, any voter who receives money during election time still compromises his vote.  While I do not wish to rob the winners of the glory of their victory, I bet that the aftertaste of their win would have been much sweeter if they (again, i mean ALL of them) did not gi...
