MANILA — The Commission on Elections (Comelec) junked yesterday its plan to hold the national canvassing of votes in the Manila Hotel, Comelec Commissioner Rowena Guanzon said.
“Site of the National Board of Canvassers will be at PICC (Philippine International Convention Center), not Manila Hotel. En banc approved it today. #PiliPinas,” Guanzon posted on her official Twitter account.
Guanzon earlier said that Comelec Chairman Andres Bautista was the one who proposed that the canvassing of election results be at the Manila Hotel.
The Comelec convenes as the National Board of Canvassers to canvass the election results for the senatorial and party-list elections. The votes for the presidential and vice-presidential candidates are canvassed in Congress.
