Our New City Mayor: Alfredo Cosico

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

Well, at least according to this poll at Polldaddy titled MAYOR FOR SAN PABLO CITY? In that particular poll, Alfredo Cosico received 65% of the total votes made while his nearest rival, Vicente Amante, received only 18%. Gapangada and Escudero received 10% and 7% respectively. The total number of votes made were 235.

Unfortunately for Cosico, winning that particular poll does not and will not make him Mayor of our city. The same goes to the Mock Polls that we have/had here but, at least, voting on these polls are fun. For these candidates, the one poll where votes made/casted matters is the one happening on May 10, 2010. Win that poll and they’ll surely win the right to lead our city for the next 3 years.
