Question 3
3. In the 2022 elections, the formidable tandem of Priscilla and Teodoro ran for and
won as President and Vice-President, respectively, of the Republic of the
Philippines. On her 15th month in office, President Priscilla suddenly resigned
due to health reasons, paving the way for Vice-President Teodoro to assume
office as President. President Teodoro then nominated incumbent Senator Angel,
who was President of the Philippines from 2010 to 2016, to take his place as
Vice-President. Voting separately and by the vote of a majority of all the
members of both Houses of the Congress, Senator Angel was confirmed, and
henceforth assumed office as the Vice-President. In the coming 2028 elections,
may both President Teodoro and Vice-President Angel legally run for
President of the Philippines? Explain your answer briefly.
