Poll machines pass 2nd round of tests
Manila, Philippines – Automated elections nationwide will push through this Monday, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) said yesterday with renewed optimism after the machine passed a second round of tests.
The results of testing PCOS machines in Metro Manila, showed a 100 percent match of manual and machine counts of votes.
Melo added however that manual counting should be held only in small municipalities where in case of a malfunction, a spare one is not immediately available.
