Comelec ends Bulacan recall election attempt

MALOLOS CITY: The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has formally stopped the recall petition against Gov. Wilhelmino-Sy Alvarado of Bulacan.

The Comelec en banc said the poll body could not proceed with the recall election after the lead petitioner, Perlita Mendoza, failed to gather signatures of at least 10 percent of the total voting population of the province, which is required under the Comelec Resolution No. 7505.
