00:00The poll bodies commissioner is seeking a lifeline for the president and begging him to fill up post
00:05haste the vacancies to be left by two retiring commissioners. Kamala Chief Commissioner George
00:10Garcia adds it would best the president handpick a replacement from within that an outsider who
00:16would still learn the ropes which the Kamala can ill afford right now with just a hundred days
00:21left to decision day. The imminent retirement of two commissioners Socorro Nting and Marlon Casquejo
00:28in February behooves the president to fill out their vacated posts forthwith
00:33to help the poll body prep for the big midterm polls in May.
00:38We're really hoping that the president would be kind enough to appoint immediately
00:44the replacement for these two commissioners. Again, I would like to express my preference
00:50for insiders to be appointed to the commission simply because we only have almost two months
00:56to go, 101 days to go. It would really be appropriate to appoint somebody coming from inside.
