Comelec signs MOA with DICT for 2022 polls
The Commission on Elections (Comelec) and the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) have launched an online precinct finder for the upcoming May 9 elections.
DICT Acting Secretary Emmanuel Rey Caintic announced that the precinct finder, hosted on their cloud environment, is now live and aims to prevent voter disenfranchisement.
Voters experiencing difficulties locating their assigned voting precinct can utilize this platform.
The specific link for the precinct finder will be announced by Comelec shortly.
In addition to the precinct locator, Comelec and DICT will collaborate on a website to display the results of the 2022 national and local elections.
The DICT pledges to provide all necessary means to ensure a safe and secure election process, including offering cloud hosting for Comelec's online services.
Comelec Chairperson Saidamen Pangarungan stated that this initiative aligns with his commitment to ensuring full transparency in the elections.
