VIGAN CITY – The Archbishop of Nueva Segovia urged registered voters in the 1st District of Ilocos Sur to “go out and vote” on May 28, the special elections set by the Commission on ElectionS for choosing a new congressman.

Archbishop Ernesto A. Salgado said it is a duty of citizens to choose wisely and vote for the candidate who would best represent the interests of the 1st District of this province in Congress.

The position was left vacant when Rep. Ronald V. Singson resigned following his drug conviction in Hong Kong.

“To our people, who are registered voters in the first district of Ilocos Sur; I am appealing to each and everyone of you to “go out and vote” in the set special election on May 28, 2011 to choose the leader that will represent us in congress,” Salgado said.

“When you vote, vote according to your conscience; know the capability of each candidate; and know and study their personality and character. The voice of your conscience is the voice of God.”
