The Makati City board of canvassers Tuesday morning proclaimed Councilor Jejomar Erwin ``Jun-jun’’ Binay as winner of the mayoralty race in Makati City.
Binay, son of vice presidential candidate Jejomar Binay, garnered a total of 125,088 votes, beating by 43,639 votes his closest rival, vice mayor Ernesto Mercado.
Binay is so far the first local government candidate to have been proclaimed winner hours after voting in the country’s first automated polling system was stopped at 7 p.m. by the Commission on Elections.
