The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has implemented measures to ensure shorter voting lines and faster ballot processing during the Bangsamoro parliamentary elections on September 14.

Comelec Chair George Erwin Garcia announced that each precinct will have 600 voters instead of the previous 800-1,000, addressing concerns about long queues.This change was made possible by a budget adjustment, ensuring voters can cast their ballots efficiently.Garcia emphasized that the reduction in voters per precinct minimizes wait times and prevents overcrowding.Additionally, 2.39 million ballots will be printed at a cost of P63 million, with strict controls to avoid excess ballots and potential fraud.Voters may be reassigned to different precincts within the same school, so political parties are urged to inform constituents about the changes.The Comelec chief stressed that each voter will receive exactly one ballot, unlike past elections where surplus ballots existed.These measures aim to uphold electoral integrity and ensure a smoother voting experience for Bangsamoro citizens.
