[Title] => Comelec in standoff over FPJ citizenship
[Summary] => A standoff appears to have emerged at the Commission on Elections after a resolution junking a disqualification suit against leading presidential candidate Fernando Poe Jr. was circulated among Comelec commissioners for signing without the chairman’s knowledge.
Comelec Chairman Benjamin Abalos denied knowledge of the resolution but in a way admitted its existence.
"Why don’t you ask those who signed the resolution?" Abalos told The STAR. "I don’t know anything about that."

[Title] => Finally, Comelec accredits Namfrel
[Summary] => After several weeks of anxiety, poll watchdog National Movement For Free Election (Namfrel) was finally granted accreditation yesterday by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to conduct a parallel quick count for the May 2004 elections.

[Title] => No reshuffle at poll body, new Comelec chairman vows
[Summary] => There will be no reshuffle at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) when its new chairman, Benjamin Abalos, assumes his new post this week.
"I am not in the habit of changing people in every office I’m in because they are there when I came in," Abalos said in an interview. "And their loyalty should not be with me or with their former chief but with the institution they are serving."
It would be premature to implement any revamp at this point since he has yet to familiarize himself with how work is done at the Comelec, Abalos added.
