The results of the May 2007 Bohol Election is already out. You can check out the list of election winners at www.BoholChronicle.com.
Election in Bohol turned out to be peaceful with no bloodshed, but it was marred with vote buying and money indeed flowed in the city of Tagbilaran and in all towns of Bohol. An editorial ran the "If The Price Is Right" and another opinion column on " Value Your Vote" by Engr. Jes B. Tirol is also talking about the monetary consideration of the recent election.
Nevertheless, what happened is already something to do with the mindset of the Boholanos. I hope there is still a chance to change their view on choosing the right candidate and not base their decision on monetary factors.

I can only speak for my hometown Sikatuna where votes are bought at the rate of P500 for Mayor, P100 for Vice-mayor, and P50 for Councilors. That's why in Sikatuna, you dont need a college degree to become honorable. All you need is money which they call "inangayan".
