A petition filed with the Comelec seeks to disqualify former Caloocan Rep. Edgar Erice from the 2025 elections, alleging his statements undermine electoral integrity. Petitioner Raymond Salipot cited Erice’s claims that the Philippines is used for “untested election technology,” accusing him of spreading misinformation. Salipot argues these comments incite fear and damage public trust in the election system, particularly by criticizing Comelec’s new voting machines and its bidding process. Erice, standing by his criticisms, refutes allegations of disrupting elections.
