MANILA -- Vice President Leni Robredo on Monday cast her vote for the Barangay (village) and Sangguniang Kabataan (youth council) at her hometown, Naga City.
Robredo arrived a few minutes before 11 a.m. at the Tabuco Elementary School together with her daughter Tricia Robredo.
In her Facebook account, Robredo said that she was saddened by the low turnout of voters.
"I hope that more will come out to vote today while there is still time. Much like our city and national polls, electing barangay officials is important as they stand to be the first unit of government we can turn to in times of need in the community," she said.
"I hope that the winners of this elections will remember the value of public service and the mandate entrusted to them by the people," she added.(PNA)
