Antonio ‘Sonny’ Trillanes has accepted his defeat in the senatorial race, saying that he, along with the Magdalo, wholeheartedly accepted the decision of the Filipino mass.
“Hindi man pabor sa amin ang resulta, pero ramdam namin na buhay na buhay ang diwa ng Demokrasya sa ating bansa. Pinili ng mga Pilipino ang mga gusto nilang maging leader ng ating bansa,” he said.
Trillanes, who was running under the Leni Robredo’s slate, added that it may have been the most emotional campaign in Philippine history, but it turned out to be the most peaceful.
“Sa dakong huli, magkakaiba man ang ating paniniwala, lahat pa rin tayo ay mga Pilipino,” he said.
He is currently in the 21st spot for the senatorial post.
