Apparently, Senator Manny Villar’s camp pegs it at about P4,000 to P4,900. How do I know that? Check out this screenshot of Mr. Villar’s Akala Mo website.

As you can plainly see the senator’s camp has stepped up its efforts at getting more people to log in to his campaign website. This raffle for a cellphone is clearly meant to gather more people involved in its propagation. Based on prices posted at Sulit.com, this particular unit costs around P4,000 to P4,900.

Call me a nitpicker but I seriously think there’s something wrong here. I know the campaign season hasn’t officially started yet and I think the Comelec has also said that campaign rules are not yet in effect. Still, I can’t help but think that this raffle is bad news and probably a sign of things to come from the good senator.

My question remains. How much is your support worth?
