MANILA - Vice President Leni Robredo felt relieved that the Presidential Electoral Tribunal granted their request to release the committee report on the initial recount of votes in the electoral prot

est filed by vice-presidential candidate Ferdinand Bongbong Marcos, Jr.

“Relieved ako because of that. Pero frustrated na hindi pa rin na-dismiss kasi ang paniniwala talaga namin, there is no other way but to dismiss this,” Robredo said in a press conference Tuesday. The PET ordered the camps of former Senator Marcos and Robredo to comment on the preliminary appreciation report on the revision, recount and re-appreciation of ballots from the three pilot provinces of Camarines Sur, Negros Oriental and Iloilo. Both parties must comment on the report within 20 days.

The son of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos claimed "massive cheating" in his loss to Robredo in the 2016 elections by some 260,000 votes, one of the narrowest in recent history, which she denied.

Panalo na sa election, panalo na sa recount pwede pa rin matalo si Robredo. Eto nga sinasabi ko. Hindi mabuti na umaasa ang tao sa karma dahil walang maasahan hustisya sa sistema. Porket mayaman at makapangyarihan ang mga Duterte at Marcos sila ang nasusunod.
