PANGYO, South Korea — The Commission on Elections will take the automation of the 2025 midterm elections a notch higher by introducing a QR code to ensure the transparency, accuracy and consistency of the poll results. Comelec Chairman George Garcia said this would be one of the innovations that the poll body would implement, aside from scrapping the transparency server that had been used in past elections.He made the announcement on Monday before touring the factory of Miru Systems Co., Ltd.
Garcia said the adoption of the QR code and retirement of the transparency server would mean that the results would be transmitted directly to the stakeholders -- the majority and minority parties, the poll watchdogs and other accredited entities.In an interview with The Manila Times, Garcia said scrapping the transparency server would 'eliminate the possibility that it could not transmit the results of the votes,' citing the seven-hour glitch that happened in the last elections.
