Eddie to open some ballot boxes and go beyond the provincial certificates of canvass was presented to the canvassing committee.<\/p>\n<p>Bro. Eddie invoked the theological arguments presented during the 1986 Edsa People Power Revolution depriving the dictatorship of any legitimacy.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, he made a deliberate and emphatic appeal to people to not bring things to the streets, and for the government not to take a harsh line against those that do decide to rally.<\/p>\n<p>The appeal in the form of a letter, which also invoked the moral views of Cardinal Vidal of Cebu, was then turned into a motion by Sen. Pimentel: open three ballot boxes to be chosen by the opposition.<\/p>\n<p>The motion was defeated. Canvassing continues and despite the efforts of other oppositionists, will most likely conclude tonight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space:nowrap\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/tarpipe.com\/js\/widget.js\">{title:\"Bro.
