It's election day in the Philippines and I'm appointed as a Board of Election Inspector..
You? What's your task today? Ordinary citizens are tasked as those that will choose the next leaders, so to all my fellow Filipinos, go out and exercise your right to vote!!! Vote wisely!!!!
Let's pray that this election will be a success even though it's our first time to have an automated elections.
Let have HOPE, Honest, Orderly and Peaceful Elections!!!

For the national results, I suppose it's may the best man win and I hope someone does that will lead the country as a whole to a better future.

The results for the national positions are not completed yet but from the partial counts, expectations are indeed expected that some candidates conceded to the ones on the top of the charts. Elected officials in the locals are proclaimed already here in our place...
Hope these new and others that were retained could lead a better Philippines and also to the local communities.

Oh, even if you're a bogus Filipino, you could at least stay guard on the proceedings of the counting of votes and report any irregularities that you could observe.. It's how other citizens could participate even if they have not voted. Boto mo, ipatrol mo... lol.. Ako ang Simula!!!

it took me and my wife almost 7 hours to cast our votes. we lined up for hours just for the priority number and again another line before we finally can enter the precinct. and it only took us 10 minutes to cast our votes. so very tiring. at least we are done and we finally got home. hopefully, there are no more bad incidents will happen and the elections will be ended peacefully in most places.

Well, there are lots of people really on the special day so you should have gone there in an earlier time so you could have been in the start of the lines... The casting of votes is easy really but the process of obtaining the ballots are the long lines...

No not really high, we're just there to guide the voters on the proceedings of their voting processes and ensure that there are no flying voters..
Yeah, let's hope that the next president will be a better one, not a better corrupted but an uncorrupted one..

Yeah, I hope the automated elections could help to count accurately the votes for particular candidates and that cheaters could not do their bad trade in the counting of election returns.. Please help to pray for us to have better leaders in the nation..

Since I don't get to vote today, what I can do is pray that good candidates will be elected. I've heard a lot of news about vote buying, and I'm a bit afraid the these incompetent candidates will win because of the small amount of money they gave to voters.
