bumoto ka ba?

3 and a half hours and 170 voters before me...
that's how long it took me to cast my vote in the national elections today.



and although i filled in all the bilog na hugis itlog for my chosen candidates, the PCOS machine in our precinct cluster wasn't working!  we just dropped our ballots in what one neighbor described as a box that looked like a garbage can. so much for partial automation... i hope that at least the count is actually automated.


here's hoping for change... the kind that starts within each and every Filipino.

    It took me 3 hours to vote! Good thing our PCOS machine is working. Buti na lang kasama ko sa pila ang mga barkada ko nung grade school. Nagkukulitan lang kami dun. Naguluhan yata ang mga BEI. The actual casting of the votes took only 5 minutes.

    ok naman pala, kahit matagal ang voting, mabilis naman ang bilangan.

    oo nga e. and mas safe sa cheating I guess. pwede lang mandaya before voting (vote buying) pero sa actual bilangan at least mas safe.

    pero shet Noynoy! hahaha! I voted for Gibo. who did you vote for? :)

    natalo daw si villar kasi mga bumoto nag check, hindi nag bilog sa hugis itlog! hehehehe.

    naku, tinadtad ko nag gordon-bayani sticker carnival ko. kasi i believe kelangan talaga natin ng disiplina
    at political will para umusad. pero kahit talunan, un pa rin paniwala ko. pero pagtapos ng election, tinanggal agad ni lawin. hahaha
    pero kung balik tayo sa 2-party system, si check at noynoy at the end siguro?

    manual pa rin ang pagboto, auto nga lang ang bilangan. pero ang tanong-- bakit bagung bago mga pcos machine, e, sira agad? parang bumili ka ng pc, tapos di magboot? dapat imbistigahan agad ni noynoy to.^_^

    ang indelible ink ko ayaw matanggal talaga..^_^
