Comelec, disqualifies more party-lists

The Commission on Elections (Comelec) disqualified 17 party-list groups, including those representing addicts and alcoholics, from participating in next year’s elections.  The Comelec disqualified organizations after thorough deliberations on the applications for accreditation of party-list groups intending to run in the 2013 polls but cite no reason as to why these party-list groups were disqualified. However, the groups that were dismissed at the division level may still appeal their case.  _(Philstar)
