00:00As a monitoring of the votes for the Hatol ng Bayan 2025,
00:04Comalec plans to lower the threshold for the reading of ballots in the upcoming election.
00:12This is what Louisa Erispe reported.
00:16The reading of ballots for the Hatol ng Bayan 2025 is now faster and more sensitive.
00:23The Commission on Elections plans to lower the threshold for the reading of ballots in the upcoming election to 15%
00:31compared to the previous 25%.
00:33Comalec Chairman George Erwin Garcia said,
00:36in this way, even if it's just a little bit,
00:39the ballots will be read as one vote.
00:45We are recommending to the NBAC to lower the threshold.
00:48The previous 50% was valid.
00:50It became an issue.
00:52It became the basis for filing cases and protests.
00:54Now it's 15%.
00:56At least there, even those who are old,
00:58those with disabilities,
01:00those who are having a hard time,
01:02even if it's just a little bit,
01:04it will be counted now.
01:06That's the intention of the hotel.
01:08The ballots will be counted on the ballot box,
01:12in front of the candidate's name.
01:14If it's placed inside a circle,
01:16the machine will not read it as a vote.
01:18For those who will be in excess,
01:20the number of people who will be shaded in the ballot box,
01:23or those who will vote for names,
01:25just like before,
01:27it may be insufficient, but the excess is prohibited.
01:30The problem of our countrymen,
01:32especially those who are voting without a code,
01:35or without a prepared list,
01:38will be shaded.
01:40Then we will count.
01:42If we count,
01:44the number of senators is already 12,
01:46instead of 11.
01:48In our ordinary language,
01:50that's a touch move.
01:52It's okay if it's not enough.
01:54For 12, we don't have a problem.
01:56But if it's too much,
01:58the ballot box cannot be changed.
02:00Namphrel, who is one of the citizens' arms
02:02in the election,
02:04is in favor of the Commission's plan.
02:06That's what Namphrel said.
02:08What is the intent of the voter?
02:10So if the markings are small,
02:12for example,
02:14consistent, let's say,
02:16in the 12 positions for the senator,
02:18consistent that the markings are small,
02:20that already expresses the intent of the voter.
02:22For now,
02:24this is not yet a planned plan by COMELEC.
02:26It is expected to be discussed
02:28and voted by COMELEC Unbank.
02:30Meanwhile,
02:32COMELEC mentioned this
02:34before they conducted an end-to-end testing
02:36for the election.
02:38COMELEC tested
02:40if the machines' voting will be consistent
02:42and if their transmission
02:44will be successful
02:46to COMELEC's servers.
02:48Luisa Erispe,
02:50for Pambansang TV,
02:52in Bagong, Philippines.
