𝗟INGAYEN, 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻-The Provincial Government of Pangasinan hosted the 4th Voters' Education and Registration Fair of the COMELEC as well as the first Automated Counting Machine (ACM) Public Demonstration.

Commission on Elections Chairman George Erwin M. Garcia; Executive Director Teopisto E. Elnas, Jr.; and other officials from the COMELEC main office led the activity, which aimed to provide information on voter’s rights, explain the importance of voting, and present the machine that will be used for the May 12, 2025, national and local elections.

Provincial Legal Officer (PLO) Baby Ruth Torre, who represented Gov. Ramon V. Guico III, said that it is highly significant that the Comelec event took place in Pangasinan, beginning in the City of Dagupan and culminating in Lingayen, the capital town of the province.

Atty. Torre called on everyone to protect the integrity of the ballot and the safety of the Filipino voting public.

Relative to this, the province of Pangasinan assured its full support for all efforts that guarantee free, clean, and honest elections.

“Democracy strengthens when people exercise their privilege of choosing the leaders that will represent them. Let us not take the value of our votes for granted,” lawyer Torre added. (PIO News)
