The Commission on Elections Second Division has dismissed the petition seeking for the cancellation of the Certificate of Candidacy of senatorial candidate Raffy Tulfo as it was “bereft” of any merit.

She also claimed that Tulfo is a dual citizen and therefore should be disqualified to be a candidate for senator. Pearson mentioned in her petition that Tulfo is married to her. The Second Division said that if even if they were to assume that the respondent did misrepresent the name of his legal spouse, it’s still no material so as to warrant the cancellation of his COC since his civil status is not material matter for the reason that it does not pertain to his qualification for elective office.
