In every election, there is a winner and a loser. Yet in the Philippines, one of Asia's longest standing democracies, the dynamic seems to be more about the "cheater" and the "cheated." In addition to this, the transmission rate, aided by the electoral provider's 4G network, appears to be the fastest yet in Filipino electoral history. This, however, is a speed that may well baffle an electorate so used to waiting for days before the election returns are processed. This year, 2022, the transparency server by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) has reached 98 percent within 24 hours. Looking deeper into the data, how credible is the theory assuming that the total numbers support the notion of an alleged "pre-programmed" election? For the presidential race, the average ratio across 17 selected transmission periods between 7:17 PM of May 9 and 2:17 PM of May 10 stand at 2.116, which is quite near to the supposed 68-32 pattern giving Robredo a "consistent" 47 percent rate of Marcos votes, but that is where the similarities end. Sixteen of the 17 transmission periods exhibit above average ratios for Robredo, ranging between 2.094 (47.76 percent) and 2.114 (47.30 percent), while the outlier first transmission period shows a ratio of 2.339 (42.75 percent). And yet, nine of the 17 transmission periods show above average ratios for Pacquiao, ranging between 8.525 (11.73 percent) and 9.94 (10.06 percent).
