The Liberal Party of Bacolod City will announce its final lineup of councilors today at the Apollo Restaurant, Hilado-Malaspina Streets.
According to LP member Frank Carbon, after a series of meetings and discussions, the group has finally decided to make public the party’s official candidates for councilor of Bacolod for the 2013 local polls. Carbon, however, clarified that the party has yet to decide on its congressional and mayoralty candidates. “All we have right now is only the final list of the LP bets for councilors,” he added. Carbon said that today’s gathering will be attended by the local party leaders and members. Earlier, Vice Mayor Jude Thaddeus Sayson, chairman of Nationalist People’s Coalition-Bacolod chapter, declared that they have given the four incumbent councilors belonging to the LP until end of this week for them to decide whether to join the Grupo Progreso or not. Sayson stressed that since the filing of the Certificate of Candidacy is fast approaching, it is better for them to decide soon. The Grupo Progreso has a standing invite for Councilors El Cid Familiaran, Archie Baribar, Elmer Sy and Sonya Verdeflor to become part of the local coalition. The filing of the COC per Commission on Elections guidelines will be on October 1-5, 2012. “We will give them the chance to decide whether to join us or not,” Sayson said./WDJ
