‘PDP Reserves Senatorial Slot for Albee’
by Eugene Adiong on Mon, 05/8/2017
The administration Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) has reserved a slot in its 2019 senatorial line up for Negros Occidental Rep. Alfredo Benitez (3rd district), acting Governor Eugenio Jose Lacson yesterday said.
Lacson made the revelation when Capitol pressed him for a reaction to a possible match-up against Benitez in 2019.
The offer was relayed to Benitez by House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez when the latter passed by Bacolod City with other congressmen who inspected the country’s maritime highway, he said.
Obviously, he has many options for 2019, Lacson said.
The Vice Governor, who is on his second term, has been continuously been asked about his political plans with incumbent Governor Alfredo Marañon Jr. already on his last term.
“We have not really sat down and discussed our political plans as a group. It is too early to announce political plans,” the Vice Governor who is acting governor, said.
“I have not yet made any decision on what I will do in 2019,” Lacson said.
“That decision will be next year,” he said.*
