Rules on candidacy and campaign finance were designed to ensure fair, transparent, and credible elections. But with the rapid evolution of campaign strategies—especially in the digital age—their application is being put to the test.

We take a closer look at whether these legal frameworks still hold up under changing political and technological conditions.

Joining the discussion is Atty. John Rex Laudiangco, spokesperson of the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) and former Director of its Law Department. As the official legal voice of COMELEC, he helps interpret election laws, address complex legal issues, and guide the public on matters of electoral integrity.
