CEBU, Philippines - Clad in their respective signature colors, Liberal Party and One Cebu Party bets, along with their supporters, crossed paths with each other at the Commission on Elections-Cebu provincial office during the filing of their certificates of candidacy yesterday morning.

The One Cebu provincial slate, wearing their blue polo shirts, led by gubernatorial candidate Winston Garcia and his running mate Nerissa Soon-Ruiz trooped to the Comelec-Cebu office at around 10 a.m.

Third district representative Gwendolyn Garcia, who is seeking re-election, and former congressman Pablo John Garcia, who will vie for a seat in the House of Representatives representing the newly created seventh district, filed their COCs. The two, however, were wearing white shirts.

Other One Cebu members who also filed their COCs were Mandaue City College President Paulus Mariae Cañete, for Cebu sixth district representative; former Boljoon mayor Teresita Celis, for Cebu 2nd district representative; Carmiano Kintanar and former Dalaguete mayor Andrade Alcantara, for 2nd district seat in the Provincial Board; and Salvador Sarimines, for 7th district in the Provincial Board.
