Dick Gordon’s Post-Election Statement

I would like to congratulate Sen. Aquino for his spectacular victory. I call upon this nation to unite and support him.

I would like to thank everyone who supported me especially my volunteers and those who gave up their limited resources as a manifestation of trust in my brand of leadership and track record.

I ran a very truthful, straightforward and candid campaign and thought we could run on the basis of our platform, track record and volunteerism.

I would like to congratulate all the winners and pray that they serve our country well.

We accept the will of the people.

Today, we have a victory for democracy with the successful exercise of our first nationwide automated election despite naysayers and doubters.

The fight for this country goes beyond this day. Let us forge on in building a Bagumbayan foe our people.

I can’t wait to cast my vote in this upcoming national election.  I’m also excited for first time voters who got to register and will exercise their right to vote on May 10, 2010.

 

 

I wonder how the automated election will go.  I pray that whoever wins the presidency or the LGU seats, at the very least, it was really an honest election… with the right count and no tampering of the actual results.

Power On and Off

 

 

Rotating power outages is scheduled again in Luzon that may last from four to five days.  National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) said that two electricity plants in Luzon are currently down due to a boiler leak.  Hence, Metro Manila will have to deal with another series of blackouts this week until the two plants are restored to normal operation.
