Comelec lifts suspension of Marcy Teodoro' proclamation as Marikina rep
The Commission on Elections has lifted the suspension of the proclamation of outgoing Marikina Mayor Marcelino "Marcy" Teodoro as the winning congressional candidate of the city's 1st District following the reinstatement of his certificate of candidacy.
In a 38-page resolution promulgated on June 25, the Comelec en banc granted the consolidated motions for reconsideration filed by Teodoro and reversed and set aside the poll body First Division's December 11, 2024 resolution cancelling his COC.
"The order for the suspension of the proclamation of respondent Marcelino "Marcy" R. Teodoro issued by the Commission (En Banc) on 12 May 2025 is hereby lifted. Finally, the certificate of candidacy of herein respondent Marcelino "Marcy" R. Teodoro for the Member of the House of Representatives, 1st District, Marikina City in the 12 May 2025 National and Local Elections is hereby reinstated," it said.
The en banc said the petitioners failed to prove that Teodoro committed material representation in his COC for the 2025 polls as regards his residency in Barangay San Roque in the 1st District. —AOL, GMA Integrated News
