For the 2010 elections, Comelec will use PCOS machines to count votes from paper ballots. It will be computerized counting of votes on paper ballots.
The canvassing at the municipal/provincial/national/crogressional levels will also be conputerized with precinct ER data transmitted from the PCOS machines via the cellular network. The reason why they are doing this fully computerized version of elections is because it is the law -- RA-9369. Which is to say that this is the way Comelec is interpreting RA-9369. //PManalastas --- On Wed, 7/15/09, jan gestre <[email protected]> wrote: > From: jan gestre <[email protected]> > The reason the Comelec is still using > the old fashion way tallying the votes is because that is > the law unless they amend the law which I think they > can't given the time frame they have, also you are right > in saying that manipulation are done from the municipal > level and so on. > > The cheating that is happening at this level > would be eradicated if only the Open Election System was > adopted, too bad they didn't, but people behind the idea > are still keeping their fingers crossed and so am I. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
