PHIn a 19-page petition before the Commission on Elections, Atty. Virgilio Garcia asked the Comelec to disqualify ACT-CIS Rep. Erwin Tulfo and broadcast journalist Ben Tulfo, who are both running for the Senate; ACT-CIS Rep. Jocelyn Pua-Tulfo and Quezon City Rep. Ralph Tulfo, who are eyeing a return to the House of Representatives; and former Tourism Secretary Wanda Tulfo Teo, the nominee of the Turismo party-list. Erwin, Ben and Wanda are siblings, while Jocelyn and Ralph are the wife and son respectively of another Tulfo sibling, Raffy, who is an incumbent Senator. Garcia in his petition said the Tulfos constituted a political dynasty which is prohibited under the 1987 Constitution, and were not natural-born Filipinos.
