Transcript
00:00One hundred fifteen days before the election of 2025, we will see an update on the printing of ballots.
00:12We have on the spot, Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:15Sandra.
00:17Yes, Raffy. The distribution of six million printed ballots that will not be used in the election has started today.
00:25This is because the new ballots must be printed, including the five additional names of the aspirants,
00:32after the Supreme Court issued a temporary restraining order for the aspirants who were declared nuisance or who were denied the Certificate of Candidacy.
00:41The family explained that the ballots must be transferred to their Santa Rosa warehouse in Laguna
00:47so that the space in the National Printing Office can be cleared for the preparation of the printing of the new ballots next week.
00:56As of now, only three ballots are being transported and loaded here in the NPO truck.
01:02This is equivalent to three cinelladas.
01:05It is not possible for six million ballots to travel in one day.
01:10Then, COMELEC will prepare this for paper melting so that the paper can be recycled and used.
01:17It will not be used as a ballot anymore, but it will be a recycled paper.
01:22COMELEC will not be able to answer if they will sell this or how they will use it later on.
01:28Raffy, they are preparing the situation here.
01:33Even the paper trimmings or the ballots will be transported to Laguna.
01:41Also, Raffy, the testing of the printer of the National Printing Office is ongoing
01:47because the four printers of the NPO will help COMELEC to reach its deadline for the printing of the ballots.
01:55This is the last report from the NPO.
01:59Thank you very much, Sandra Aguinaldo.
