Comelec girds for 2016 presidential polls, problems

The Commission on Elections (Comelec) is already preparing for the 2016 presidential elections, as the poll body chief admits that the commission has failed in the May 2013 mid-term polls.

“Nawalan kami ng preparations, nagkulang kami, maraming gulo, maraming asuntong inakyat at maraming ingay [We lacked preparations, we had shortcomings, there were troubles, cases were filed and there were a lot of noises]. I hope we will be able to solve all the problems,” Election Chairman Sixto Brillantes said on Monday.
