As voting for the May 12 midterm elections came to a close, celebrities and internet personalities running for government positions exercised their right to vote in their respective polling precincts.

While these celebrities have already built a following before the elections, they are still bound by the rules of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) when it comes to campaigning and fulfilling their responsibilities.

“Exact 3pm bumoto tayo. Nakapila nakatayo… Nakakatuwa po napakaraming kabataan ang bagong butante ngayon (I voted at exactly 3 p.m. We lined while standing up. It makes me happy to see a lot of young voters today),” she added.
