First-time voters speak up
VOTING wasn’t a problem for most of the first-time voters whom I spoke to. Aside from flyers that were given away in front of poll precincts, all of them said that the proper voting process was followed.
What did cause a problem was that some of the first-time voters were not familiar with many of the candidates, so they had a hard time deciding whom to vote for.
Topping their list of senatorial candidates was Representative Francis “Chiz” Escudero, as well as the other members of the Genuine Opposition. The first-time voters said that they were ready for change, and that these candidates’ platforms and programs were the most youth-friendly.

I was really disappointed when I found out that my name is missing in the voter’s list in our precinct. COMELEC should do something about this
