Insights by Echo AI
The Senate impeachment court has voted to adjust the two-thirds conviction threshold to cover only senator-judges who are legally eligible to take part in the proceedings. This means that the required number of votes to convict Vice President Sara Duterte has been reduced from 16 to 14. The ruling is applicable only to Duterte's impeachment trial and will not affect future proceedings.
