Marcos lawyer: Votes gained by Robredo in recount proof of 2016 poll flaws

“Try to imagine, even if there was an increase on the part of the Leni camp and whatever amount on the Bongbong Marcos votes, take note, there was an increase and therefore the computers, the machines did not function properly as promised,” said Atty. George Garcia in an interview on ABS-CBN News Channel.

The three provinces were chosen for vote recount by Marcos in his electoral protest, since he believed these are areas that had the most number of irregularities. “There was an increase, so they are saying therefore that the machines did not function properly. So what we are saying is that is the irregularity. That is the fraud to justify going to the remainder of the protest,” said Garcia.

“We are very confident that with these two facts and ‘yung law, the case should be dismissed,” he said. “The rule is clear. Dapat i-dismiss ito ng Korte Suprema .”
