Commission on Elections Chairman George Garcia urged the public not to politicize the annual Traslacion in Quiapo, noting the sanctity of the religious event must be upheld.
Drawing millions annually, the event reenacts the transfer or "traslacion" of the Black Nazarene statue, believed to be miraculous, from its original location in Intramuros, Manila, to its current home at the Minor Basilica or Quiapo Church in 1787.
