US voting machines
It is always good to know that the people of a country can voice out their choice. That is what happened in the recently concluded US Presidential Elections.
What I noticed while watching the news was the machine that they used in the elections. It made counting all the more easy for them. Imagine, they started the voting yesterday and just this noon they have the results already! Fast!
So I was wondering while watching the news, why can’t we invest in those machines? Instead of the numerous machines that the Comelec bought a couple of years ago and still remain unused to date. The Comelec should look into investing in the machines the US use. It might be the solution to the widely feared cheating that happens every damn election that we hold.

And we still use paper and some huge nail to do the voting (as of what I remember for the last voting 4 years ago).

I was impressed by how fast the votes were counted. I could only wish our country can buy similar modern equipment.
Thank you for your birthday greetings for my hubby.

We can buy those machines if, and only if, the corrupt officials are not pocketing the money to buy those needed voting paraphernalia. I wish we have more honest politicians.

Aduh! If they have this high tech machine, they can’t cheat anymore.
