Delays in deciding election protests do not necessarily create doubt about results, as recounting votes requires processes like machine and manual counts. COMELEC is not effective at preventing vote-buying because there are many ways for it to occur, and politicians target vulnerable voters who need incentives and who do not report the incidents, making it difficult for COMELEC to curb the practice. Politicians engage in vote-buying because they know vulnerable groups will accept incentives without reporting the illegal activity.

1. Do the delays in decision regarding election protest create doubt
to the result?
Delays in decision regarding election protest for me it doesn’t create
doubt to the result because everything must go to a process. For recounting of votes one must undergo several proceedings like machine counts and manual counts.
2. Why do you think COMELEC is not effective in preventing vote-
buying?
There are lot of ways for vote-buying. COMELEC is not effective in
preventing vote-buying because they need the help of the citizen to become there eyes. But these politician are targeting those people who are in the “laylayan” because they know that these voters needed whatever they are giving to them. So no one dares to report those incident that is why COMELEC are having troubles on vote-buying.
