#Eleksyon2016: Divorce and freedom

TRIGGERED by The Rundown 2016, an ABS-CBN News Channel and UP Economic Society program that aired live on January 29, here is another issue that one must take into consideration when deciding whom to vote for. The Rundown asked the first batch of its senatorial candidates about their stand on divorce, and to have had only one senatorial candidate say ‘yes’ to divorce among the many who were present, is just utterly disappointing.

Of course the show’s format was such that the second batch of senatorial candidates was not asked the same questions as the first batch, which makes one wonder: how do you choose among these candidates when we don’t ask them about the same issues?
