Can we trust the COMELEC or the current administration to be "honest" in
using the internet voting machines? GMA's Administration with its
credentials of having the likes of Garci, Esperon and other Generals is
enough testament on how they will possibly use these voting systems. In the
National Integrity Systems Country Study of the Philippines in 2007[2],
Transparency International refers to the "Hello Garci" tape scandal as a
demonstration of "conflict of interest and at worse vote-rigging occuring in
an institution that is supposed to serve as the country's electoral
watchdog."

Re: Your comment
I think this will be good for our overseas voters though.
