This coming elections, what is the best thing that you can do for our country? Philippine elections are generally peaceful and orderly, at least that's what I have observed in my place. However, poll violence may be noted in some areas, and election frauds may happen. The most that I can do is to vote according to my conscience, and to choose people with integrity, competence and service. Let us also pray for a clean and honest elections.

Tomorrow will be election day. I hope I could cast my vote and I hope that my vote would be counted. Again we hear vote buying activities but hopefully the voters will vote according to their conscience and the elections will be generally peaceful and clean.

Thanks for being optimistic about the coming elections. I also heard voters who peddle their votes, as in "for sale"..the nerve...but let us continue to pray, to be vigilant, and hope for the best. May the best people win...

I don't think that the 2007 Elections will be totally clean but I do hope that the election can be better, more credible and fairer than the past elections if citizens become active in guarding their votes and when they expose irregularities during the election. Let's just pray for a peaceful elections.

Right...I'm happy to know that there are still hundreds of thousands of Filipinos who believe in our elections. Of course, it takes a vigilant citizenry to keep them credible and peaceful. That's the spirit, jasdownie...keep it up!
