With less than 20 days before the May 9 polls, the Commission on Elections , in partnership with SM Supermalls, held a mock election and demonstration of the vote counting machines at SM Malls in Marilao, Baliwag, Pulilan, and San Jose Del Monte.
The initiative is part of the Memorandum of Agreement signed by the Comelec and SM Supermalls for the voters’ education program or “Let’s Vote Pinas” which aims to increase public confidence in the usage of the VCM by providing a hands-on and educational experience in preparation for the elections on May 9, 2022.
Shoppers at the mall and not just registered voters are encouraged to participate to familiarize themselves to gain a better understanding of the voting processes. The initiative aims to lessen the errors that voters usually commit on Election Day like shading the oval, handling the ballot, and feeding the ballot into the vote-counting machines.
At least 800 mock ballots are allocated per day at SM Malls in Marilao, Baliwag, Pulilan, and San Jose Del Monte. Let’s Vote Pinas will run until April 24, 2022.
