[Ask Your Comelec] Can we avoid fake candidates a la Alice Guo?

After Alice Guo’s connections to illegal activities and criminal personalities have been revealed, there is one basic question that Filipinos always go back to: How in the world did she become a mayor in the first place?

As aspirants for elective positions are set to file their COCs from October 1 to 8, 2024, for the 2025 polls, the more important question is: What are the chances that another ineligible or unqualified person gets past Comelec again?

We answer these questions on 'Ask Your Comelec,' Rappler’s special series for the 2025 elections, where we sit with election officials to talk about legal issues, ask hard questions, and explain new guidelines and processes.

In this first episode, Rappler managing editor Miriam Grace Go sits down with Comelec Chairman George Erwin Garcia.
