00:00The Commission on Elections, or COMELEC, was able to solve the issues in the balota during the upcoming elections.

00:05It is one of the reasons for lowering the threshold of marcas in the balota so that it can be read more.

00:10Louisa Erispe is in the center of the news. Louisa.

00:13Joshua, it is possible that even a single marca or shade in the balota will be read by half of the country by 2025.

00:22This is because of the Commission on Elections' plan to lower the threshold of reading marcas in the balota.

00:29The 15 percent, which used to be 25 percent, said Chairman George Erwin Garcia.

00:35They did this to remove the question of whether a voter read the vote or not.

00:41This is because if the balota is not shaded, the balota will be circled.

00:45Here is the statement of Chairman George Erwin Garcia.

00:49We are recommending to them to lower the threshold.

00:52It used to be a solid 50 percent.

00:54It has become an issue.

00:55It has become a base for filing cases, for protesting.

00:59Now, it is 15 percent.

01:00At least there, even those who are old, those who are disabled, those who are having a hard time.

01:05Maybe even if it is just a point, it can be counted now.

01:10Because that's the intention of the voter.

01:13COMELEC said that it is only applicable to marcas in the balota,

01:18in the name of the candidate.

01:20Whatever marcas can be placed outside the balota cannot be counted.

01:24But COMELEC has a reminder for those who will be overshadowing,

01:28to shade the balota in the name of the candidate.

01:31Just like before, it can be less, but not too much.

01:37The real problem of our countrymen is this.

01:40The problem of our countrymen, especially those who are voting without a code

01:46or without a prepared list,

01:49they will shade.

01:51Then, we will count.

01:53If we count, it will be 12.

01:56The senator, instead of 11.

01:59In our ordinary language, it is called a touch move.

02:03It is okay if it is less than 12.

02:06We don't have a problem.

02:07But if it is too much, the balota cannot be replaced.

02:11It is a close call now.

02:12COMELEC's plan is to lower the threshold.

02:15They will discuss this thoroughly.

02:18As for NAMPFERL, it is in favor of the Commission's plan.

02:21NAMPFERL's pay is also included.

02:25That is also what NAMPFERL is saying.

02:28What is the intent of the voter?

02:33Meanwhile, Joshua, it is also mentioned that the Commission of Elections

02:37will post on their website the COCs of aspirants

02:43for the National Opposition in the 2025 elections.

02:46These are the senatorial aspirants

02:48and the nominees in the party list are also included.

02:51For the people to see,

02:53they can access the official website of COMELEC,

02:56www.comelec.gov.ph.

02:59That is the latest.

03:00Back to you, Joshua.

03:03Thank you very much, Louisa Erispe.
