They will try again

RELIABLE. Reliable information reaching The Ear from an “unimpeachable source” has it that many of those who ran but lost in the May elections are running again in the coming October election, this time for barangay captain or councilor.

NATIONWIDE. “This will be true not only in Cebu but nationwide," according to an Ear informer who is privy to a still unpublicized survey by a PR-research group based in Metro Manila. The Ear informer said some of those running in the barangay polls “are top guns” in their respective political bulwarks.
