| Neither does this evidence support the allegation that petitioner failed to comply with the residency requirement for the transfer of his voting record from Barangay Payan to Barangay Indatuan. Given that a voter is required to reside in the place wherein he proposes to vote only for six months immediately preceding the election,[62] petitioner's application for transfer on December 13, 2006 does not contradict his earlier admission that he was a resident of Barangay Payan as of April 27, 2006. Be that as it may, the issue involved in the Dilangalen petition is whether or not petitioner made a material representation that is false in his CoC, and not in his application for the transfer of his registration and voting record. | |||||

| This treats of the Petition for Review on Certiorari with a prayer for the issuance of a Temporary Restraining Order and/or Writ of Preliminary Injunction filed by petitioners Spouses Carlos S. Romualdez and Erlinda R. Romualdez seeking to annul and set aside the Resolutions, dated 11 June 2004[1] and 27 January 2005[2] of the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) in E.O. Case No. 2000-36. In the Resolution of 11 June 2004, the COMELEC En Banc directed the Law Department to file the appropriate Information with the proper court against petitioners Carlos S. Romualdez and Erlinda Romualdez for violation of Section 10(g) and (j)[3] in relation to Section 45(j)[4] of Republic Act No. 8189, otherwise known as The Voter's Registration Act of 1996.[5] Petitioners' Motion for Reconsideration thereon was denied. | |||||

| Respondents likewise submit that there was no need for presentation and evaluation of evidence since the issue of whether Bautista was a registered voter is easily resolved by looking at the COMELEC registration records.[28] This reasoning fails to consider the instances where a voter may be excluded through inadvertence or registered with an erroneous or misspelled name.[29] Indeed, if it was just a simple matter of looking at the record of registered voters, then the COMELEC would not have included Section 7 (g)[30] in its Resolution No. 4801. This Section allows candidates who are not registered voters to be included in the certified list of candidates until the COMELEC directs otherwise. | |||||
