Look: The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has directed all local candidates to remove “all prohibited forms of election propaganda at least 72 hours before (the) start of the Campaign Period” on Friday, March 29.

“Otherwise, said candidate or party shall be presumed to have committed the pertinent election offense during said campaign period for local candidates, as the case may be.”

A reminder posted on their Facebook page at 1 p.m. today says that prohibited acts include the posting of campaign materials outside of the designated poster areas.
