Comelec eyes malls as voting centers for 2025 polls
The Philippine Star
|March 15, 2024
Malls among other "public places" are being eyed as voting centers for next year's midterm elections, to avoid overcrowding at polling precincts and provide convenience to voters, Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman George Garcia said yesterday.
At a press briefing, Garcia said he had directed local election officers to prepare alternative voting centers like malls for the midterm elections instead of classrooms at elementary schools which get overcrowded and unbearably hot during elections.
"Our instruction to our local Comelec offices is - as much as possible, if we can help it, avoid using elementary schools because there are other public spaces anyway. Let's use those public spaces," Garcia said.
