"Results of barangay elections today are going to have effect on results of midterm elections and subsequently in national elections," President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. told reporters after casting his vote in Batac City, Ilocos Norte outcomes of Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections are "crucial" in shaping national political landscape. FMJ said as Filipinos head to polls to choose their village leaders.
Barangay is smallest political unit in the Philippines, but its leaders have considerable influence. Political parties strategically utilize council posts to establish grassroots power bases.
"As national politician, I always say that of all elected officials, it is barangay officials who can actually tell you, 'I will deliver this many votes,'" he stressed.
In August, FMJ said his political party, Partido Federal ng Pilipinas, had been preparing for all political cycles, including barangay elections, expected to have "big impact" on utcomes of 2025 midterm polls.
"We need support at barangay level," he said then.
Filipinos head to polling centers to choose leaders responsible for delivering basic public services and implementing national policies for first time in five years…over 672,000 seats are up for grabs in long-delayed elections.
Chief executive reminded voters not to sell their votes.
"My advice is not to waste your right to choose your barangay officials. ..these officials are ones you face every day, and they are your go-to people to help with your problems," FMJ said.
He assured public government will do its part to enforce rules prohibit vote-buying and selling of votes.
Department of the Interior and Local Government has called on public to report any significant presence of poll watchers during BSKE, as it might indicate potential vote buying
In release issued ahead of village polls, Abalos said candidates should appoint only two watchers to serve alternately in every polling center to avoid allegations of vote buying.
According to Commission on Elections' Resolution 10946, there can be presumption of vote buying if candidate appoints more than two watchers per precinct.
"I am urging public to be vigilant and report to COMELEC or DILG if they notice precincts with numerous poll watchers…we will investigate thoroughly and take appropriate action," Abalos said.
Candidates found guilty of vote buying could face imprisonment of up to six years and perpetual disqualification from public office.
Omnibus Election Code states appointments of watchers should bear signature of candidate or duly authorized representatives of political party who appointed them.
Poll watchers have right to witness proceedings of Board of Electoral Inspectors, document their observations, take photographs of proceedings and incidents, if any, and file protest against any irregularities or violations of law which they believe may have been committed.
Country's first-ever mall voting initiative saw high turnout during 2023 Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections, poll body said.
Initiative aims to enhance convenience and accessibility of voting for Filipinos, particularly vulnerable sectors.
Pilot testing of mall voting, held in 11 shopping centers across country, drew significant number of voters, Commission on Elections spokesperson Rex Laudiangco said in interview with media.
Laudiangco said Comelec plans to expand mall voting initiative in 2025 midterm elections.
"We'll conduct it on broader scale with help of our partner malls because this initiative is at no cost to Comelec and to government… funded entirely by our partner malls," he said.
initiative was conducted in collaboration with major mall chains SM and Robinsons.
Watchdog Legal Network for Truthful Elections said persons with disabilities, senior citizens and pregnant women availed of early voting hours and mall voting.
It noted voting procedure was generally smooth in many participating malls. Its watchers also reported majority of precincts were located on upper floors.
Filipinos flocked to polling centers to choose leaders responsible for delivering basic public services for first time in five years. Over 672,000 seats are up for grabs in long-delayed elections.
Comelec' pilot implementation of early voting scheme for vulnerable sectors turned up favorable results during 2023 BSKE.
Pilot tested in just two cities Naga and Muntinlupa City early voting scheme allowed senior citizens and PWD voters to cast their votes from 5. to 7 in the morning ahead of regular opening of precincts.
Early voting option was "blockbuster" among those cities' constituents, Comelec Chairperson George Garcia said in interview with media.
"When I was there early this morning I was so amazed, I really appreciate fact that our senior citizens woke up early, even PWDs… there even with assisters, who were also allowed to vote," Garcia said.
Garcia added based on turnout in the two pilot locations, early voting scheme should be implemented nationwide.
"We would like to make conclusion in 2025 onwards we should now have early voting hours in conduct of our national elections, we're hoping Congress will be able to pass an early voting law. ..at least one week ahead of elections, vulnerable sectors should be allowed to vote," Garcia said.
Garcia acknowledged despite positive outcome of early voting scheme, some senior citizens and PWDs were inconvenienced by having to sign documents prior to casting their vote.
Poll body tested its early voting option in this year's long-awaited BSKE in hopes of improving voting process for vulnerable sectors even as Early Voting Bill remains pending in Congress.
Early Voting Bill was transmitted to Senate in May after being approved on final reading at House of Representatives.
