Grupo optimistiko sa disqualification ng Smartmatic sa Philippine elections | Pilipino Star Ngayon

MANILA, Philippines — Umaasa ang isang grupo sa pagkakaroon ng "mas transparent na automated elections" sa pagkakadiskwalipika ng Smartmatic — bagay na posibleng makapagpanumbalik daw sa tiwala ng publiko sa proseso ng halalan. 

Miyerkules nang ianunsyo ni Comelec chairperson George Garcia ang pagkakadiskalipika ng technology provider mula sa kanilang procurement process matapos makwestyon sa isang petisyon ang kanilang integridad.

Panawagan tuloy ngayon ng Digital Pinoys, dapat maghanap ang Comelec ng updated at transparent provider habang hinihikayat magbigay ng technologically advanced solutions na mas hihigit pa sa ibinigay ng Smartmatic.

"The call is not merely for a replacement but for a provider that can offer superior vote counting machines, reducing the technical problems that have marred previous automated elections," sabi pa ni Gustilo.

"The goal is to enhance the efficiency of vote counting machines and minimize
