Smartmatic‚Äôs Cesar Flores tweeted today that everything is set for the May 10, 2010 election. On his tweet he says: ‚ÄúGlad to announce: all CF cards are at the municipalities, 92.3% of all PCOS at the precincts, and over 40% tested and sealed. Let’s go!!!‚Äù
Comelec spokesman James Jimenez told ANC that all precinct count optical scan (PCOS) machines have been delivered to their respective precincts. Most of them have been tested and sealed.
Despite some glitches, Jimenez said the poll body is confident all election paraphernalia will be in polling centers when they open at 7 a.m. on Monday.
In less than 24-hours Filipino’s will decide the future of our country for the next 6-years. Once again we will exercise our freedom to suffrage. A freedom to choose of whom we want to lead us for the next 3 or 6 years. A freedom that have been hard earned by our ancestors. Blood and life had been lost to gain this freedom, let us not waste it by choosing wisely. Tomorrow, when you cast your vote think not only yourself of what we have today. Think of your children, your grandchildren, the future generation. Is your candidate can give them a better future? Is your candidate can lead us to a better country?
Vote wisely, the future of our country lies into your hand.

by admin, on Mon, Feb 22 2010 | No Comments
Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III is the top choice of Filipinos in Europe for the presidential seat. Following closely is the Sen. Manny Villlar. On the mock election conducted on several countries in Europe with 500 respondents, Aquino garnered the highest with 39% followed by Villar with % and former president Joseph Estrada was 3rd with 20%.
Europe has a total of 61,294 registered absentee voters. Italy has the most number of registered absentee voters with 23,435 and far second is the United Kingdom with only 8,552.
For the vice-presidential race, Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II was way ahead at 39% followed by Sen. Loren Legarda with 24%.
However, in a separate mock elections initiated by the Philippine Association of Royal Mail Employees in United Kingdom, Manny Villar was on the lead with 81 votes or 34% and Aquino placed 2nd with 73 votes or 32%.
More than 200 members of the group took part in the mock polls in the UK.
In an outreach program conducted by the Philippine Embassy in Wales, ABS-CBN’s Balitang Europe conducted random interviews with Filipino workers on their choice for president.
The interviewed Filipino workers said they chose Aquino because he is credible and has no taint of corruption.
Some picked Sen. Richard “Dick” Gordon because of his proven track record while some prefer Bro. Eddie Villanueva claiming the country needs spiritual leadership.
Absentee voters in Europe may be small in number, but they pull serious influence on their relatives back home.
