Election 2010
Youth Voters who vote last SK elections need to register again
-Comelec
The Commission on Elections spokesman James Jimenez said that youth voters who registered last 2007 during the Sangguniang Kabataan (Youth Council, SK) elections should register again for them to be able to vote for the 2010 elections.
Those SK voters aged 15 to 17 that time, are registered but their registration does that make them “qualified for regular elections” because the verification process for voters in regular elections is more thorough compared to that of SK elections, Jimenez added.
Voters, turning 18 on election day, may register at the Comelec office where he/she resides.
An applicant must accomplish the forms, and submit accomplished forms to the election officer.
Voter must present any valid identification card such as student’s ID or library card signed by the school authority, NBI or police clearance, postal ID, driver’s license, SSS card, GSIS ID, PRC license or employee’s ID.
In the event that the voter failed to present any of the required identification documents, the applicant may be identified under oath by any registered voter of the precinct, or any of his/her relatives within fourth civil degree of consanguinity or affinity.
Upon receipt of the application form from the elction officer, the voter may proceed to the data capturing machines to get his/her biometrics.
Deadline of registration for the 2010 elections is on October 31.
Election day should be blackout-free
To prevent power outages during the 2010 automated elections, the Comelec is planning to deal with power suppliers.
Comelec Commissioner Rene Sarmiento aims to have formal agreements with power suppliers to ensure continuous power supply on election day. He will then propose this idea to the poll en banc.
The fear is due to the recent 10-hour power black out in the Visayas region. Sarmiento feared that cheating will occur during power black outs especially during the counting and canvassing of votes.
One of the requirements in the procurement of poll machines is that the precinct count optical scan (PCOS) should have standby battery units, for the machine to be able to operate in events of power outages.
PCOS should also have a removable, non-rewritables memory storage device containing the stored voting data of a precinct. In such case of electroninc transmission problems, this storage device will serve as an emergancy unit. The device will then be removed and a board of election officer could transport it to the nearest precinct so the data can be transmitted.
