Garcia said the Comelec's preparations for next year's elections are now at full speed.
He said Miru's customization of the counting machines began two weeks ago.
Before the end of the year, Miru is expected to complete the delivery of the 110,000 automated machines, according to Garcia.
He clarified that the poll body is just leasing the VCMs.
