Senators questions COMELEC's repetitive choice of Smartmatic

Some senators have wondered the company the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) always chooses in providing automated election system for the countries elections. It has always been Smartmatic. It is strange because the company have had many controversies and courts cases in the past.

Among those who question are Senate Majority Leader Tito Sotto, Senators Nancy Binay and Panfilo Lacson.

The senators told COMELEC to consider other companies in providing automated systems with a better reputation for the May 2019 elections.

They were also surprised to learn that COMELEC will buy 97,000 use of vote-counting machines from Smartmatic.

According to Lacson, the COMELEC should seek other suppliers or contractors not only because it was not only once the integrity of Smartmatic has been questioned, but many times, and should not be neglected.

It was only before last week that Sotto disclosed the alleged anomalies that occurred during the election on May 9, 2016, where there were early and unauthorized transmissions of votes.

In a latest news article from Politiko, here is what Senator Leila De Lima said in referring to Duterte's way in eradicating illegal drugs in the country. She also said about Duterte's way of eradicating his political foes like her.

"These are human beings. He should address the root causes of the country’s problems instead of harassing and killing people."

"Peace-loving Filipinos should remind the President that suspected drug addicts and political dissidents are not termites that he can ‘exterminate to save the house."

"Violence solves nothing."

"President Duterte should understand that peace-building is a painstaking process and that there are legitimate grievances such as injustice, poverty and lack of economic opportunities fuelling insurgency in the country."

"But it’s not yet too late in going back to the negotiating table if the government is really sincere in seeking non-violent means to address the communist rebellion in the country."

"Unless, that is, Duterte’s true intention is to establish an authoritarian regime that eliminates dissent and kills democracy."
