Coin toss Decides Philippine Local Polls


    Two candidates in the northern Philippines who got the same number of votes in a local election have settled the issue of who won by tossing a coin.

    Bryan Byrd Bellang and Benjamin Ngeteg tied for the last of eight council seats in Bontoc, a resort town some 280km (175 miles) north of Manila.

    They agreed to the coin toss, set down in local election rules. Mr Bellang called heads and won the seat.
