    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill by Sen. Ledama. I know that he had good intentions to bring some order to our election process, especially on the voting day. Issues in elections start all the way from party primaries. A Bill that will help us deal with party primaries is coming up. This Bill looks at issues on the Election Day to ensure a free, fair, credible, accurate, transparent and predictable election.

However, I would like the Senator to consider further amendments to the law so that Section 1(f)(g), where a candidate cannot use the declaration form to go to court, is The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
