00:0088 days before the election of 2025,
00:11the number of people who will verify the ballots was added to the printed ballots.
00:17A senatorial candidate is the one who expressed his opposition to the election.
00:22And Sandra Aguinaldo was the one who voted.
00:2527 million ballots were printed for the May 12 elections.
00:29That's 36% of the more than 70 million ballots that need to be printed by COMELEC until April 14.
00:36The problem is that the verification process of the ballots is not fast,
00:41that's why only 4 million were verified.
00:44That's why COMELEC added 200 verifiers
00:48to the 200 ballots that were placed in the basketball court of the Amoranto Sports Complex.
00:56They also added 100 verifiers to the National Printing Office.
01:01They are inspecting the ballots one by one to make sure that it meets the standard
01:06before passing it through the automated counting machine.
01:09If it's like this, it's like our money.
01:11I will ask for our money.
01:12There should be no smudge.
01:13There should be no lines like this.
01:15That's why they are checking everything.
01:16That's the manual verification.
01:18That's fast.
01:19There should be no smudge.
01:24There's an error.
01:26Because there was an error, the ballots were checked again by the verifier and tested again in the machine.
01:35There, it's passed.
01:37If it's passed, it's considered a good ballot, that's why it will be used in the election.
01:42The defective ballots will be separated.
01:45COMELEC is confident that they can still reach their April 14 deadline.
01:50The security here in Amoranto is tight.
01:53Many eyes are watching.
01:55That's why COMELEC is saying that it's impossible for some syndicates to say
02:00that they can make a candidate win by manipulating a machine or a ballot.
02:08COMELEC has already made a promise by a syndicate that a politician who will pay will win
02:15using the invisible ink in the ballot.
02:18There is another group that is counted as an ex-employee of the commission.
02:23COMELEC is really from 17 years ago.
02:26We have only been automating elections for 15 years.
02:29So they don't know about the automated election.
02:31If our countrymen hear this now, please arrest them immediately.
02:36Arrest them immediately.
02:38Meanwhile, Dr. Willie Ong is calling for the candidacy to go back to the Senate
02:44to focus on health care after being diagnosed with sarcoma cancer.
02:49COMELEC will not remove his name from the ballot and his vote will only be a stray vote.
02:56According to COMELEC, if Ong's staff can't go to COMELEC,
03:00he can submit a certificate from the doctor.
03:04For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, Nakatuto, 24 Horas.
