Day 3 of the COC filing for the 2025 elections promises more spectacle than substance, if yesterday’s events are any indication. 

Sure, Senator Imee Marcos and 95-year-old Imelda’s slow-mo entrance had its share of flashes, but it was Diwata of Diwata Pares Overload who stole the show, waltzing in as the Food Stall Vendors Partylist’s surprise nominee.

Our sources, ever diligent, tell us today will be even wilder. We’ve got YouTuber Mang Halo-Halo, ready to stir the political scene with his “Extra Toppings for the Nation” platform. Not to be outdone, TikTok influencer Ate Bibingka is set to file her candidacy for the Sweets and Street Treats Partylist, promising “Golden Brown Governance” to all.

At this rate, by Day 5, we might witness a showdown between Sen. Bistek and Cong. Banana Q. Truly, democracy has never been this flavorful.
