Revelations of COMELEC substandard management emerge

Senate Committee on Electoral Reforms and People’s Participation (CERPP) chaired by Senator Imee Marcos puts COMELEC on notice over irregularities and sub-par oversight over technology operations.

This is a follow-up report on disturbing information that has been emerging since last week on the sub-standard state of computer networks, equipment, software, and technology management practices of the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) that could put the May 2022 elections at serious risk of electoral fraud. A hearing today conducted by the Senate Committee on Electoral Reforms and People’s Participation (CERPP) chaired by Senator Imee Marcos looked into the details of this developing situation. Attending the session were involved persons and agencies.
