ABS-CBN correspondent Maan Macapagal reports that the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has noted a 50 % decrease in the amount of campaign posters on the streets of Metro Manila for this year's midterm polls compared to what it collected after the 2010 elections.
Â
The report quoted MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino, who said that the drop in the amount of campaign posters and might be attributed to the implementation of a limit on the size of posters, the presence of common poster areas and the higher cost of printing tarpaulins.
Â
MMDA personnel have begun taking down campaign materials along Manila and Pasay since Wednesday, May 15.
