the 2010 election was the most highly anticipated national election in our history

being the first Auto May 10 automated election

where we've adopted a modernized election process, through the use of pcos machines that counted and transmitted the votes

local news organizations (watchdogs) abs-cbn, gma-7, inquirer held different approaches too on their special news coverage of the 2010 elections

they presented news with the use of cutting-edge technology

the hologram effects and the engagement on social networking sites facebook and twitter as tools for sharing information among users and viewers

i came early to my voting precinct in makati as early as 6am

as compared to the manual voting where we fill in the blanks,

the ballot has printed all the names of the candidates, only to shade the oval that corresponds on the name of chosen candidates

it saves voting time in that aspect, op cors were not allowed to take pictures of the actual ballot

May 10 | pass the paper!
@ryandgreat
May 10 | o ayan na!
May 10 | yes! done!
i've heard a lot of horrible stories during election

and i'm fortunate that i did not experience the waiting period, delays and machine error when i cast my vote and it was verified agad! so there!

it went all good from the voting to counting and the results (in the local level) were determined right away!

and yes we all benefited from this by having the more efficient, fast and with somewhat reliable results as we've experienced already

however that's not an assurance of a clean election,

yes there were shortcomings but at least we've become more vigilant and its our duty to be that way

as cnn hero of the year 2009 efren penaflorida said, "...we are the change that this worlds needs to be"
