Herbert: QC voters chose integrity and performance

WHEN the Quezon City 1.1 million voters rendered their judgment yesterday, they resoundingly picked honesty and proven track record of their political leaders over phony promises and put-on persona of those who want to worm their way into controlling the city government.
Liberal Party mayoralty candidate Herbert ‘Bistek’ Bautista voiced confidence saying that the overwhelming majority of QC voters supported his call of clean politics even when the black propaganda machineries of his rivals went into overdrive in trying to destroy his reputation during the campaign.
“The public has gotten wise about these dirty tricks and they have spoken against those who tried to hoodwink them by peddling lies. I campaigned on legitimate issues while my opponents scraped the gutter to throw false charges against me. I have absolute trust that the truth will bear me out,” Bautista stressed.
He said his unblemished record in public service and tangible programs for the people has granted him a new mandate to continue serving them – this time as Quezon City ’s new chief executive.
Bautista added that a similar groundswell of public support has carried forward the rest of his team including his running mate, LP vice mayoralty bet Joy Belmonte and their lineup in the city council.
