And many women and some men are known to be damsels in distress, that #babaeako included,” she said. […]

FARMVILLE, United States (AFP) — Vice presidential hopefuls Tim Kaine and Mike Pence launched into their only debate of the campaign Tuesday, immediately clashing on the reputations and experiences of their bosses chasing the White House. Democrat Kaine and Republican Pence squared off to highlight their capabilities as the men who could be a heartbeat away from the presidency, but essentially they were on stage fighting a proxy war for their running mates five weeks […]

WASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — “Delete your account.” Hillary Clinton’s snarky tweet Thursday to her White House rival Donald Trump was among the funniest of the campaign. Almost as funny as it was awkward.

Tiniyak ng pamunuan ng Philippine National Police (PNP) ang kahandaan ng kanilang mga tauhan sa pagsisimula ng kampanya sa lokal na posisyon na magsisimula na bukas, Marso 26. Ayon kay PNP Chief Director General Ricardo Marquez, tututukan ng kapulisan ang pangangampanya ng local candidates lalo pa’t mas mainit aniya ang kampanya sa lokal na posisyon dahilan kaya ipinag-utos niya na mas pataasin pa ang antas ng presensiya ng mga pulis.

(Eagle News) — Nagbabala ang Commission on Elections (Comelec) na posibleng ma-disqualify at makulong pa ang mga kandidatong mangangampanya mula bukas, Marso 24 hanggang Biyernes, Marso 25. Panawagan ng ahensya: dapat isaalang-alang ang karapatang panrelihiyon. Hindi anila dapat magkaroon ng anumang political activity kahit na ang simpleng pagkakabit lang ng campaign posters. Kaugnay nito, hinikayat din ng Comelec ang taumbayan na agad i-report sa kanila sakaling may pulitikong lalabag sa nabanggit na kabawalan.
