MANILA — (UPDATED) Filing a certificate of candidacy (COC) for senator a third time on Wednesday after being disqualified twice, Beth Lopez, whose personal miracles have convinced her she is &quot;the chosen one of God,&quot; warned of a curse if she is prevented anew from running in 2025.Claiming she was previously disqualified due to being &quot;poor&quot; and her inability to mount a campaign, Lopez addressed the Commission on Elections about barring her bid for a Senate seat.&quot;Lahat ng mga taong involved na ako ay i-disqualify sa pagiging mahirap... Isinusumpa ko ang mga taong &#x27;yon at idideklara ko na pinaka wala kayong kwentang ahensya ng gobyerno!&quot; she said.Lopez pointed out that she &quot;hates&quot; politics, but it was God, she said, that put her on this path.&quot;Idinideklara ko — sa dami ng himala sa buhay ko — I am the chosen one of God. Kapag namatay ako, dinideklara ko na, babalik ang kaluluwa ko. Parurusahan ko na kayo,&quot; she warned.<div>DISQUALIFYING A CANDIDATE </div>On Wednesday afternoon, Comelec spokesperson Atty. John Rex Laudiangco explained the grounds to declare one candidate as nuisance have lessened following decisions of the Supreme Court (SC) on the matter.The SC, he explained, has ruled that lack of funds to mount a nationwide campaign, popularity or lack of a political party cannot be considered as grounds to declare one as nuisance candidate.&quot;Bagamat lumiit po ang ating pagkakataon sa law department na makapaghanap ng dahilan para ma-declare na nuisance candidate, meron pa rin namang dalawang natira para ma-determine na ikaw ay bona fide na kakandidato,&quot; Laudiangco said.He explained: &quot;Tingnan namin ano ang actuations mo nu&#x27;ng nag-file ka ng COC. Naiintindihan mo ba ang tinatakbong posisyon? &#x27;Yun bang mga ipinangako mo ay nasasaklaw ng posisyon na gusto mo takbuhan? Kasi maaaring nagpa-file ka ng senador ngunit &#x27;yung sinasabi mo naman na trabaho hindi para sa senador.&quot;&#x27;Yung ikalawa po na tinitignan namin ay yung naghain lang COC ay para lang guluhin o lituhin ang ating eleksyon.&quot; — with a report from Willard Cheng, ABS-CBN News<div> </div><div> </div>
