On Automated Elections

The Municipal Election Registrar has scheduled a series of Voters Information/Education Campaign concerning the forthcoming automated elections. The activity is geared to heighten the awareness of the voting public to these historic state-of-the-art local and national elections. The voting public had been invited and the turn out surprised the Provincial Election Registrar who noted that in other municipalities where the COMELEC had conducted similar activity attendance was diminutive.

For their part, the uncontested local candidates (a historic one for the municipal level in Aklan or even perhaps in the entire Visayan regions) want to complement the effort of the MER. It was suggested that instead of campaigning, they would educate their constituents concerning the mechanics of the automated elections. That way, they could keep themselves busy and satisfy their preconditioned minds of keeping in touch with their people during the entire campaign period.

I supposed that this link will help them inform the voting public: http://www.thepoc.net/automated-elections/2858-how-to-vote-in-an-automated-election.html#
