Rey Sumalipao, Comelec director for the Bangsamoro region, says those who make allegations of double registrations need to go beyond mere assertions and show proof.
LANAO DEL SUR, Philippines – Lanao del Sur Governor Mamintal Adiong Jr. on Saturday, January 21, called on the Commission on Elections to stop the ongoing voter registration in his province due to concerns about “flying voters.”
Adiong expressed disappointment that the Comelec had been registering many new Lanao del Sur voters from Maguindanao, Iligan City, and Cagayan de Oro City. Adiong said the number of Lanao del Sur voters – some 689,000 – in the 2022 elections was already high, and the Comelec had been registering even more.
