The Commission on Elections (Comelec) will proclaim Alfredo Garbin Jr. as Legazpi’s new mayor after the Supreme Court upheld the disqualification of Geraldine Barrameda-Rosal. The ruling stems from a violation of the Omnibus Election Code related to the distribution of government funds during the election period. Garbin, who lost to Rosal in the 2022 elections, will take office following the court’s decision.
