Vice President Leni Robredo has appealed to the public to stop demeaning others amid the frustration felt by some over the results of the recent 2019 midterm elections.

In her Twitter post on Wednesday, Robredo said the time after the election is the most crucial time for others.

“Let us not resort to name-calling, demeaning our fellow Filipinos that—at this most crucial time—are the ones we need to reach out to and connect with all the more,” Robredo said

“Things may not be going our way, but a bigger battle calls on us to be strong and still be kind. Lalaban pa rin [Philippine flag emoji],” she added

Robredo’s camp has also suffered loss after none from Otso Diretso bets made it to the winning circle of Magic 12.

As the chair of Liberal Party, the vice president campaigned hard for Otso Diretso senatorial slate.

Only reelectionist Bam Aquino was fighting it out for the 12th and last winning slot with 94 percent of votes tallied, based on the voting results.

Mar Roxas ranked 17^th while the rest of the bets were outside the top 20.
