Marcoses vote in Ilocos Norte

Ilocos Norte 2nd District Rep. Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. and former Rep. Imee Marcos cast their votes in Batac, Ilocos Norte at exactly 10 a.m. on Monday.

The Marcos siblings, who are running in the May 10 polls, voted at the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial Elementary School.

Bongbong is running for senator while Imee is seeking the Ilocos Norte gubernatorial post.

Imee’s sons, Michael and Borgy Manotoc, were also present.

After voting, the Marcos siblings proceeded to the Immaculate Conception Church then went to the Marcos Museum in Batac.

Their mother, former First Lady Imelda Marcos, voted ahead of them. She is seeking to replace her son as congresswoman.

Imee’s cousin and rival in the gubernatorial race, Gov. Michael Marcos Keon, is expected to vote Monday afternoon.

Meanwhile, several precincts in Ilocos Norte experienced glitches in their precinct count optical scan (PCOS) machines. Some of them were unable to read the ballots right away.

But the Commission on Elections (Comelec) assured that they can fix such glitches
