Senator-elect Antonio Trillanes said after his proclamation, that his election was a people's victory. I also heard some news reports and reporters that said that Trillanes's election was the will of the Filipino people.
Granted, that he got more than 11 million votes. But what is that compared to the more than 29 million Filipinos who actually voted or the more than 42 million Filipino registered voters? PDF.
Well, well. About 62% of those who voted DID NOT VOTE for him. About 74% of all registered voters DID NOT VOTE (and some COULD NOT VOTE) for him? What will of the people are we talking about?
Then again, even topnotcher Loren Legarda only had about 18 million votes. What does this show then? That there are much more Filipinos who do not like any one Senator?
