THE Commission on Elections (Comelec) will release next week the guidelines for the filing of certificates of candidacy (CoCs) for the 2025 national and local polls, which will be made public for the first time for the sake of transparency.

Candidates can file their CoCs between October 1 and October 7, excluding October 6, a Sunday. September 30, on the other hand, is the last day for voter registration.
