What Philippine Elections Cost

The specific cost of running for office in the Philippines and what it reveals

The Cost

The specific cost of running for office in the Philippines -- the specific campaign expenditure that the COMELEC reporting documents for the national candidates and the specific additional expenditure that the reporting requirements do not capture -- is the accountability journalism of the political system whose access is determined by the specific financial resources whose magnitude excludes the specific candidates who lack them.

The Expenditure

The expenditure: the senatorial candidate whose campaign reaches the voters across the archipelago requires the specific media buy, the specific rallygoing infrastructure, and the specific turnout operation whose combined cost the successful candidates have spent hundreds of millions of pesos on.
