The Senatorial Election:

Even before May 14, surveys on the elections were being released. These surveys are usually opposition favored.    Now that we are canvassing our votes, the partial and unofficial counts from NAMFREL and Comlelec are now coming out. As expected the opposition coalition, GO, is leading. But there have been surprises, like Lt. S.g. Antonio Trillanes IV. Just a few weeks ago he was in the number 22 spot in  surveys but look at him now he is usually in the 9-13^th spot of the Comelec count but what dose this mean exactly? People say that Trillanes is one of the biggest protest vote in this year’s election. He, in my opinion is considered a protest vote is because that he is one the Leaders of the Oakwood mutiny that basically tried to over throw the Arroyo administration. I mean people wouldn’t vote for a mutineer if the masses liked what he was against. ”This is where you will see the people’s sentiments and what people want. The want for change and reforms” that is a statement a friend of mine said that well appears to be true. In short, people are discontent with the present government and are looking for change. In fact If I remember right based on a SWS survey a high percent of people would find it ok to have change in the government through a coup. A lot people also like him because of his integrity .Look the other Magdalo members, they made deals with the government, like deals that they (the Magdalo members) wont be sued by the government and put back in there positions in the military in exchange for they admitting they were wrong and saying sorry.

Right now just having the opposition is, like people say “Sampal sa Muka ni Gloria!” What else that the person who tried to bring you down has a good chance of winning as a senator, ”Sampal “Right now in my opinion, of course  Gloria wouldn’t want Trillanes to win so she will try to do some magic. Let’s just pray that his votes remain safe after all there’s only so little that a man behind bars and with not much money can do. I do hope he makes it in the Magic 12.
