The Commission on Elections (Comelec), in its infinite wisdom and impeccable time management, has once again proven that its priorities are as clear as mud. Instead of swiftly addressing blatant campaign violations—like candidates practically throwing money at voters like it’s a game of Pera o Bayong—it has decided that the best use of its resources is to educate a noon-time variety show contestant about its role. Because, obviously, the fate of our democratic process hinges on whether a clueless TV personality finally understands what Comelec does.

Meanwhile, reports of vote-buying are piling up like uncounted ballots, and campaign violations are waved off with all the urgency of a turtle on vacation. But hey, at least we can all sleep soundly knowing that one more lost soul now knows that Comelec is not a brand of tissue paper. Priorities, right?
