Pinoy VOTE

1. Why are some candidates not listed?

We are constantly updating our list of candidates, we plan to build a comprehensive list of candidates, not only for senators, but also for local candidates. Unfortunately datas on some candidates are not readily available. Candidates with websites or listed on government websites are most likely to be listed.

2. Why do some candidates have pictures and others don't?

Pictures are collected from candidates websites, government websites, news website and some are contributed by members and visitors who added the candidates themselves. It's very unfortunate some prominent candidates still don't have much internet presence.

3. Why do some candidates have biographies and profiles and others don't?

Most of our profiles and biographies are gathered from government websites, but they are not complete only a handful of candidates have biographies and profiles. Checkout http://www.Congress.gov.ph , Most government websites like YourProvince.gov.ph or Yourcity.gov.ph are undevelop and don't have much data on them, only a few are updated and very informative, It's sad these websites are not put into good use. Just a waste of taxpayer's money.
