KAMPI, LAKAS bets dominate Aklan’s mayoralty race

Kalibo, Aklan –Majority of elected mayors and vice mayors in the May 14 national and local polls here are from KAMPI and LAKAS parties.

Tabulated results at the Sangguniang Panlalawigan office here displayed by the Provincial Board of Canvassers show that as of 3:00 P.M. of May 17, 10 of the winning mayors in Aklan’s 17 towns are candidates from KAMPI while two are from LAKAS-CMD.

Four other mayors won under the Nacionalista Party.

All these mayors have been proclaimed already, minus one from Ibajay, Aklan, under KAMPI, who is also said to be leading the mayoralty race there.

Majority of proclaimed vice mayors came from the LAKAS Party with 10; KAMPI, 4; and NP, 3.

Aklan’s KAMPI candidate for the Lone District of Aklan, incumbent Rep. Florencio T. Miraflores also won with a very big margin over his opponent, Anthony Acevedo of PMP-PDP Laban Party while incumbent governor Carlito s. Marquez of LAKAS-CMD is leading the gubernatorial race. For vice governor, leading the race is Gabrielle Calizo of the Nacionalista Party, a former congresswoman.

Miraflores, Marquez and Calizo have not been proclaimed by the Provincial Board of Canvassers due to the delayed municipal canvass in Ibajay.

For the senatorial race, a mix of GO and Team Unity candidates pack the first 15 slots here, in the following order with their corresponding votes: Legarda, Loren, 112,666; Escudero, Francis Joseph, 106,072; Villar, Manuel, Jr. 102,017; Pangilinan, Francis, 91,497; Lacson, Panfilo, 85,497; Aquino, Benigno Simeon III, 83,080; Pichay, Prospero, 73,452; Angara, Edgardo, 73,394; Cayetano, Alan Peter, 66,763; Honasan, Gregorio, 62,903; Trillanes, Antonio, 59,824; Pimentel, Aquilino, 58,327; Zubiri, Juan Miguel, 57,484; Arroyo, Joker, 56,274; and Recto, Ralph, 56,265.

According to Lorena Tumbagahan, Acting Provincial Election Supevisor (PES) here, the recent national and local elections held here in Aklan was generally peaceful and orderly. (PIA/Venus G. Villanueva)
