Today the Supreme Court junked the disqualification and cancellation of certificate of candidacy cases against president-elect Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Here are the main arguments of the petitions and Marcos’ answers to them:

MANILA, Philippines – There are five remaining petitions against the presidential candidacy of the dictator’s son, Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., with one reaching the finish line at the Commission on Elections , marking the start of what is sure to be a legal drama for the 2022 elections.

There are two petitions to cancel the certificate of candidacy of Marcos, and four petitions for disqualification. Two other petitions have already been denied. First, we differentiate a petition to cancel COC and disqualification. Cancelation of COC had a set early deadline , while disqualification may be filed at any time before proclamation. Cancelation of COC would not allow substitution for the candidate because, in the first place, there would no longer be any COC to speak of. Disqualification allows substitution as long as the substitute has the same surname.
