TACLOBAN CITY–Former beauty
queen Yedda Marie Romualdez will be the new congressional representative of
Leyte’s first congressional district. Romualdez was proclaimed winner in the
congressional race by the provincial board of canvassers on Tuesday afternoon. She
was accompanied by her husband, outgoing Rep. Ferdinand Martin Romualdez
of Leyte’s 1st district who was tailing in senatorial race, during the
proclamation. Romualdez won by a landslide with 147,477 votes while her
opponent, lawyer Fiel Clemencio, received only 51,550 votes. This is the
first elective post for Romualdez, who was crowned Binibining
Pilipinas-International in 1996 and a nurse by profession. As part of her
campaign promise, the elected congresswoman said that she would focus on
building health facilities, among others, across the congressional district
which covers the towns of Palo, Tanauan, Babatngon, San Miguel, Santa Fe,
Alangalang, Tolosa and Tacloban City. (Source: Inquirer)
