PPCRV Says COMELEC Should Explain More About 7-Hr Delay Poll Update Last May 13

PPCRV – The Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV) said the COMELEC should explain the 7-hr delay in updating poll last May 13.

After the election on May 13, 2019, Filipino people wanted to be informed about the voting tally.

They kept on checking their phones, computers, and television just to know if their favored politician got into the so-called ‘Magic 12.

Based on a report from GMA News, PPCRV chair Myla Villanueva said they are waiting for the explanation of the COMELEC on the issue.

That’s too little to say… Kagaya sa atin,, pinakita po natin ‘yung logs, sinuri natin isa-isa. Dapat po patunayan sa ating mga tech experts ng media at ng political parties kung anong nagyari dyan sa server na ‘yan technically,” said Villanueva.

Previously, the COMELEC blamed the delay on a problem in the application on the transparency server.

“Kasi nakita naman natin sa logs na talagang ‘yung application na ‘yun ‘yung may problema so they should speak more about it.”

“Hindi naman sasabihin lang [that] it was underpowered, it needs much more clarity,” she added.
