THE filing of Certificates of Candidacy (COCs) for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) Parliamentary Elections will start today, November 4, 2024.
According to Commission on Elections (Comelec) chairman George Garcia, more military and police forces were deployed to the Bangsamoro region for the filing period which ends November 9.
“Sa pakikipagpulong ng mga local Comelec po namin diyan po sa Bangsamoro, nagdagdag na po ng puwersa ang AFP at PNP. Karagdagang puwersa para lang masigurado na magiging mapayapa ang filing ng certificate of candidacy,” Garcia said in a radio interview Sunday.
Aside from the COCs, the Comelec will also open the filing of List of Nominees and Certificates of Acceptance of Nomination for regional parliamentary political parties.
The Comelec chair appealed to the candidates to police their respective supporters and maintain a COC filing that is orderly, clean, and peaceful.
Garcia said a total of 73 BARMM parliamentary seats will be at stake during the first BPE on May 12, 2025.
The national and local elections will also be held on the same date.
