Defeated candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr said the Supreme Court did him wrong by dismissing his electoral case against Vice President Leni Robredo.

Defeated candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr said the Supreme Court did him wrong by dismissing his electoral case against Vice President Leni Robredo.

“Instead they made us pay P66 million for the protest… made us wait for almost 5 years… made us believe that the annulment was a separatedistinct and independent cause of action – only to decide the case without affording us due process?” asked Marcos. “The PET should do everything in its power to ascertain who really won as Vice President. The truth should not be limited to the existence or non existence of the Rules on Annulment because at the end of the day, it will be the people themselves who will be deprived of ascertaining who the real victor in the 2016 elections were,” he said.

Robredo beat Marcos by just 263,473 votes in the 2016 polls, prompting the latter to allege cheating and to file an election case against her. "The full decision of the PET, unanimously dismissing the election protest against VP Leni Robredo, decisively and definitively affirms her 2016 victory and her mandate as Vice President," said Gutierrez in a statement."I owe this to the more than 14 million loyalists who voted for me. I owe this to our youth who will be casting their ballots in 2022. At the end of the day, the true will of the electorate must prevail," said Marcos.

He lost again the recount.. and again when he succeeded in disallowing certain precincts. He lost for the 3rd time.. no amount of money is going to change the outcome! Get over it.

Kahit ano gawin mo hindi ka mananalo

Why even talk about this? You are falling for the dictum 'Bad publicity is still publicity'. Suckers!

All the duterte appointed justices voted for the dismissal ano pa bang kailangan.

Tama na Bong..mag Mayor ka na lang sa LAOAG..dun madami pa kayong TANGAhanga.

Atleast may isang bagay na hindi kaya maatim mg SC

so i guess one reason na tama lang na natalo ka is GAHAMAN KA MASYADO SA POWER, Trapo moves bongbongmarcos

if you cannot respect the decision of the supreme court, then what kind of a leader will you be?

Bakit nag-aala TRUMP ang bebeboy ni Marcos? Didn’t you say “will of electorate is of paramount importance”? That “will” has spoken a long time ago! And they said ROBLEDO. Not everything can be bought! Pa-refund mo kay Duterte his promised vice presidency.

Binoto ko naman to si Marcos as VP pero sana tigilan na nya yung mga protest nya. Marami pang chance.

You and your entire family did the Philippines wrong 🙄

eto talaga yong sabik na sabik sa kapangyarihan e. hindi nalang tanggapin na ayaw na ng mga tao sa pamilya mong mag nanakaw!!!

You need help..really need help and its ok we understand

Natalo ka. Proven na. Nothing to see here.

Manahimik ka Bongbong!!

Only gentlemen accept their defeat!

Ang hirap sa hindi makatanggap ng katotohanan. He still believes there was cheating that happened. Would you also believe that cheating was everywhere during your father’s time? BBM is also disappointed with Duterte for not helping him at the SC.

Hahaha cry cry yung spoiled brat hindi napagbigyan...

Pota buhay pa to?

Ang kapal ng mukha nitong Ilokano na ito.

Funny, this coming from him! How about owning up all the wrongs your family has done to the Filipino people?

TUMIGIL ka na nga, talonan ka na ilang beses, sege kapa rin. Malamang yung nirereklamong nanalo abutin mo pang presidente na!

Not worth it ba ang binayad mo kay Calida?

Gago!

TANGINA MO!

tas gusto nyo to maging Presidente. nakakahiya!

Going beyond this defeat of BB, what's the plan of Duterte? He has nobody to handover his power.

If it did you wrong, it must have done right for the people. The people deserve the VP they elected. You deserve the decision of the SC which only affirms people’s rejection of you. Accept that and just return the billions your family stole from the people.

Haha 🤣🤣 haha 😂😂

Stop whining. You lost!

Justice Leonen argued that the election results is already upheld thus it can't be further questioned. Which is very wrong. The very purpose of PET is to question the authenticity and preserve the integrity of the election.

The entire Marcos family. Narcissists and delusional until the end.

What a nuisance. Delusional until the end.

Dude its over, give it up, you’re worse than Trump
