Congressman: Raul Gonzalez Jr.
Mayor: Larry Jamora
Vice Mayor: Antonio Pesina
Face it Jed is not going to win, so save your energy. Unless you are relative then go ahead and keep hoping he will win. Just remember I told you so. I’m partly psychic, and this time I’m 100 percent sure that Jed will be the last, but first to run out of the country to save face.

Please vote Counselor Joshua C. Alim. I knew him for almost 13 years he is credible and identified as pro-poor.
May 4th, 2010 at 3:52 am
I will vote for Gonzales Sr. or Jamora for Mayor.
Vice will be Pesina.
For congressman, not yet definite. But definite not for Treñas.

I’ll never vote for Jerry Trenas as Congressman. He is very corrupt as Mayor of Iloilo City for 3 terms. He has only made it bec. he has the ‘money machine’ from his hurakot of public funds at the expense of the poor Ilonggos. Also, his wife has very poor public relations too, a ‘high hat’. Very proud couple.
Trenas has been diverting public funds to his own pocket.
STOP the panghurakot! NO to TRENAS!
Shame on him, shame on him as an Ateneo alumnus. Self enrichment is his main motive to run for higher public office & not sincere public service!
