Las Piñas holds BSKE voting simulation

In anticipation of the upcoming Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections set for 30 October, the Commission on Elections hosted a voting simulation exercise at the Robinson's Mall in Las Piñas last Tuesday, 17 October.

The event aimed to test the preparedness of both the electoral body and the voting public, as well as to identify any potential issues that could arise on election day.

Gracing the occasion were notable Comelec officials including Chairman Atty. George Garcia and Commissioners Nelson Celis and Atty. Rey Bulay.

The simulation was a crucial step in ensuring that the electoral procedures are followed, and making any necessary adjustments before the actual elections.

It also served as an educational endeavor to familiarize voters with the voting process, in an effort to make the real event run as smoothly as possible.

It is part of Comelec's broader strategy to ensure free, fair and efficient elections at the barangay and SK levels. It adds to a series of measures the commission has been implementing, which include voter education campaigns and the vetting of candidates.

The results of the simulation will be analyzed thoroughly to address any weaknesses or areas for improvement, as the commission gears up for what is expected to be a critical electoral exercise later this month.
