And being a Mother’s Day today, Mommy Merceditas said she could not ask for more than to pray for the success of her son. She said she would continue praying that her son, in everything he will do, will always be in the right path of life.

MANILA, Philippines - Liberal Party (LP) presidential candidate Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III yesterday vowed to continue the fight even after tomorrow’s elections have been concluded.
Aquino said he is not being complacent despite a commanding lead over his rivals in the surveys as the campaign drew to a close.
Aquino told his supporters during the LP’s miting de avance in Quezon Memorial Circle on Friday that “we have not yet won, we are not yet assured of a good future - the fight continues.”
The 50-year-old bachelor concluded his campaign in his hometown in Tarlac where he would vote on election day.
It was in Tarlac that Aquino and running mate Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II started hitting the road under “hunger, rain, sunshine and danger” throughout the 90 days of the campaign.

By Sheila Crisostomo (The Philippine Star) Updated May 09, 2010 12:00 AM
MANILA, Philippines - For all its imperfections, real or imagined, the first automated elections tomorrow would signal “the beginning of a massive transformational phase in the electoral system of the Philippines,” Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman Jose Melo said yesterday.
“We are finally moving away from the known flaws and weaknesses of the old ways of doing things and toward an automated election system that promises a speedy and accurate count, a highly efficient reporting mechanism that democratizes the count and canvass of election results, and most importantly, the extinction of dagdag-bawas (vote padding and vote shaving),” Melo said.
