COMELEC shrugs concerns over election automation

The country’s Commission on Elections have shrugged the insinuations of a failed automated elections even as the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) aired concerns over the preparations for the first nationwide computerized elections.

The CBCP through Bishop Nereo Odchimar spelled serious questions about the reliability and integrity of the equipment and the personnel involved have not been satisfactorily answered.

In a pastoral statement issued, the CBCP asks for an alternative system that should be put in place.

We should all calm down and soon, we will see that our objectives will be attained,” Melo said. (PIA)
