AS far as lawyer Alex Lopez is concerned, the election in Manila isn't over as he ramped up his protest against the newly-sworn Mayor Maria Sheilah 'Honey' Lacuna-Pangan, urging the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to take into its custody the disputed ballots in over 1,000 clustered precincts in the May 9 elections while linking some of poll personnel in a 'clandestine transport of ballot boxes.'

Lopez, who came in second in the city polls, filed his protest contesting the election and proclamation of Lacuna-Pangan alleging that massive electoral fraud, anomalies and irregularities were committed in all the 1,859 clustered precincts in Manila.
