Doblezero. Most abrenians can make an "educated decision" , problem is these crooked candidates won't let them. Just look at the candidates and you know what I'm talking about. |

Dinayo na ng commision on election (comelec) ang Abra para sa demonstrasyon sa paggamit ng polls automated voters machine sa pamamagitan ng voters education road show para ituro ang bagong systema ng pagboto para sa ganun ay matigil na ang dayaan sa probinsyang ito(titigil na nga ba?) Binigyan ng pansin ng comelec ang Abra sa kadahilanang matagal nang talamak dito ang dayaan.Hindi lang sa Abra kundi lahat ng election hotspots sa buong bansa. Umaasa ang comelec na sa pamamagitan ng makina maputol na ang dayaan.Mas maganda daw ito dahil very efficient.Kung literate ka hindi ka na mag iisip basta makita mo lang yung pangalan ng kandidatong gusto mong iboto,you're going to shade on that.Ang magpapasok ng balota ay ang mismong botante.Pero mayroon pa ring duda ang iba na may gagawin pa ring paraan dito,kagaya na baka daw pasasabugin nila ito.kaya dapat on that day maging alerto ang mga kinauukulan kasi talagang delikado di lang natin alam.Election is not a joke in this province,kaya dapat yung mga botante maging alerto rin sila. Comelec is only hoping na tanggapin ng mga tao ang ganitong sytema,wag silang matakot na baka maipit ang kamay or whatsoever at dapat magtiwala sila sa systema na gagamitin.Kumbinsido ang mga taga Abra na gamitin ang sytema ng makina pero hindi rin siento porsyetong garantiya na wala na ngang dayaan.each voter only takes up to 10 minutes para matapos at maipasok sa machine yung balota.(SANA NGA UUBRA ANG GANITONG NAISIP NA BAGONG PARAAN,KUNDI WALA NA TALAGA ANG ABRA,NASA LOSING END NA.)

If that 7B is just the initial cost, the maintenance cost can even be a bigger animal to tame in the long run. O.G., I'm afraid it only takes time to prove your prediction right. |

The following shows COMELEC was not proactive enough. And now, they are talking about what we've talked about a bit at A.com. What a costly lesson. Bye, bye 7 billion bucks! "Comelec allays fears on automated polls By Leila Salaverria Filed Under: Inquirer Politics, Eleksyon 2010, Computing & Information Technology
MANILA, Philippines—It’s all about fear of the unknown. The Commission on Elections (Comelec) said on Monday the poll body would just have to keep the presidential candidates informed about its preparations for the automated balloting in May. Election Commissioner Gregorio Larrazabal said the concerns raised by the candidates at a forum were prompted by “a new way of voting and a new way of counting votes.” “I guess the best way is just to inform them of what’s happening, the updates, keep people abreast of the developments so people will be aware. I guess the fear of not knowing is what’s prevalent now. It’s a fear of not knowing what will happen and we’re doing our best to address it,” he told reporters. Larrazabal said that this was why the Comelec had been conducting public tests of the counting machines and letting people participate in the preparations as much as possible. Other agencies are involved in the process, he said. For instance, telecommunications firms are supposed to provide the network signals to be used to transmit the results of the voting. The Department of Education has to have well-trained teachers to man the voting, while the power sector has to ensure adequate power supply. “They have to do their part,” Larrazabal said. “Everybody who has a stake and a role in the success of elections must do their part. It can’t be a Comelec-only activity,” Larrazabal said. Also on Monday, the Comelec said that the printing of about 1.5 million ballots for the elections in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) had been completed, paving the way for the printing of the ballots for the rest of the country. The ballots for the ARMM are different from the ones to be used elsewhere, since they contain Arabic translations and are thus two inches longer than the ballots for other provinces. The ARMM ballot is 27 inches long."

Foreign delegates urge Comelec to be transparent   
Date Published: March 18, 2010 AN international delegation that visited the country last week said suspicions and the lack of trust fuel the public’s general anxiety over the 2010 automated elections. The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has yet to clarify and issue instructions on a range of outstanding issues — from addressing contingency planning, accessing automated election system source codes, to clarifying election day procedures, the group stated. The delegation was composed of a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives, a former minister for justice of Ireland, and a former president of the New Zealand National Party among others. The visit, conducted from March 6 to 13, was organized by the National Democratic Institute (NDI), a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that safeguards elections and promotes citizen participation in governments worldwide. “There is still time for all participants to take appropriate steps to achieve democratic elections in May, but concerted efforts are required to increase transparency, build in needed safeguards, heighten security and develop public trust in the process,” it recommended.
