Comelec is opting for manual elections because it does not want to use the old vote counting machines given their tendency to malfunction.

MANILA — Similar to the recently-concluded Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections , aspirants for the vacated Negros Oriental 3rd District House post will already be considered candidates once they file their Certificate of Candidacy for the special elections.

According to Commission on Elections chairman George Garcia, this is because the December 9 special elections will be done manually.“Ina-apply po namin yung Section 80 ng Omnibus Election Code. Ibig sabihin, kayo po ay considered candidates na kaagad kapag sila ay nag-file ng Certificates of Candidacy. Bawal ‘yung mga fiesta atmosphere, bawal ‘yung mga parang may festival, bawal ‘yung may napakadaming tao kapag magfi-file ng COC.
