Ikinabahala ni House Assistant Majority Leader at Leyte Rep. Richard Gomez ang pagbabago sa bilang ng mga bumoto pabor sa isinusulong na absolute divorce bill.
“They have already recorded the initial number of affirmative votes, and this has been reported and announced in the plenary. But now they are saying that there was an error in the counting. How did that happen?” sabi ni Gomez.
Sa sesyon ng plenaryo noong Miyerkoles, Mayo 22, inanunsyo na ang bumoto pabor sa panukala ay 126 habang 109 naman ang tumutol dito at 20 ang nag-abstain.
“I am puzzled about the change in the number of lawmakers who voted ‘Yes’ to House Bill No. 9349 or the proposed Absolute Divorce Act from 126 to 131,” sabi ni Gomez.
Kinuwestiyon ni Gomez ang pagtuwid ng liderato ng Kamara de Representantes sa resulta ng botohan sa absolute divorce bill.
“Was the adjustment made to address statements that the motion to approve HBN 9349 was ‘lost’ when the body failed to get the majority votes of the members who were present during last (Wednesday’s) session? In my personal assessment, I believe that the approval of the divorce bill was lost when it failed to get the majority approval of the lawmakers present when it was put to a vote. For me, as we speak, HBN 9349 has not been approved on third and final reading,” dagdag pa ni Gomez.
Noong Huwebes, Mayo 23, sinabi ni House Secretary General Reginald Velasco na itatama ang maling pagbilang sa boto.
“The rectification in the Records of the House will be done when Session resumes this July 2024,” sabi ni Velasco.
Sinabi naman ni Gomez na nais nitong malinawan kaugnay ng rules ng Kamara sa pagbabago ng boto.
“Likewise, I would like to be clarified: Is correcting the number of votes outside of the session allowed under House Rules? Because if making errors in the counting of votes is a ‘regular’ thing, how then can we be assured now that all the previous votes counted in relation to other measures were correct?” dagdag pa ni Gomez.

Naghihinala si Gomez na maaaring itinuwid ang naging resulta ng botohan dahil na rin sa pahayag ni dating Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III na hindi umano maituturing na pasado ang panukala dahil hindi naman nakuha ang boto ng mayorya ng mga kongresistang present o naroon sa sesyon ng pagbotohan ito.
