All appeals are dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of supplemental appellate briefs not timely filed).

For reasons indicated in its holding, the lower court upheld the first instance judgment convicting the Defendants of the facts charged.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence in violation of logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the interpretation of “distort of public opinion polls” under Article 96(1) of the Public Official Election Act and the “public announcement of false facts” under Article 250(1).

Therefore, all appeals are dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
