00:00 There was also tension in two presintos in Palawan because there were people who were pulling the bags.
00:06 From the Comelec office in Manila, live on TV, Tina Panganiban Perez. Tina.
00:12 As far as Comelec is concerned, the alleged incidents of violence on the election day
00:22 are happening in places that are not in the red category and are not under Comelec control.
00:29 [Shouting]
00:35 The fight between two individuals in Nunungan, Lanao del Norte, which was hit by many,
00:42 Comelec said, and the police were also hit.
00:45 [Shouting]
00:53 [Indistinct chatter]
00:58 In Puerto Princesa Pilot Elementary School in Palawan,
01:02 some adults were pulling the official ballots from two presintos.
01:07 They put a padlock on the ballot box.
01:10 One was arrested and was already inquired.
01:13 He could face an election offense.
01:16 But Comelec did not declare a failure of elections.
01:19 While the vote was paused, it continued.
01:24 Despite the incidents of violence, like what happened in Datu Odin, Sinsuat,
01:29 where two people were killed in the shooting,
01:32 Comelec said, the barangay and SK Elections are peaceful in half.
01:37 Our elections are generally peaceful in the whole country,
01:40 even though there are some incidents of violence in the whole of Abra.
01:45 You did not hear any problems.
01:48 In the red category areas, the 365,
01:53 there were no incidents of violence,
01:58 except for the ones in Nunungan, Maguindanao, and Lanao del Norte,
02:06 even in Butig, Lanao del Sur.
02:08 They are not in the red category areas,
02:12 so we were surprised why there were incidents like that.
02:15 Those incidents are not enough to stop holding the election.
02:22 Comelec Chair George Garcia voted early in Indang, Cavite.
02:27 Garcia also went to New Believed Prison
02:30 to witness the voting of hundreds of persons deprived of liberty.
02:34 He also visited several malls,
02:36 where the mall voting is held for the first time.
02:41 The malls are spacious.
02:42 Meanwhile, in a school that we went to,
02:45 in a small room, the seats were small.
02:50 That's why Garcia is thinking of holding mall voting in the whole country.
02:54 Let's abandon the schools as polling places.
02:58 It's high time that we find other places that are free.
03:02 DepEd reported that more than 2,500 teachers in BARMM
03:08 withdrew from election duty while 29 in ABRA.
03:12 The reasons of withdrawal are mixed.
03:15 It includes their fears regarding election-related incidents.
03:20 Comelec is expecting that there will be proclamations tonight.
03:24 But if they are included in more than 200 pending cases in Comelec
03:29 due to premature campaigning, illegal campaigning, and vote buying,
03:33 Comelec unbumped the suspension of proclamation.
03:37 There are additional cases to be filed today.
03:40 Emil, there are still polling precincts that are open even after 3 p.m.
03:49 like Puerto Princesa Pilot Elementary School and several schools in Mindanao
03:54 where the delivery of election paraphernalia was deliberately delayed due to the fear of confusion.
03:59 Comelec cannot say how many voters turned out in the 2023 Barangay Eskay elections
04:05 but the commission is hoping that it will surpass the 70% turnout in the 2018 Barangay Eskay elections.
04:12 Emil?
04:13 Thank you very much Tina Panganiban Perez.
