Comelec to include BARMM in July voter registration activities
The Commission on Elections (Comelec) will include the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) in the upcoming voter registration for the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) elections.
This decision aims to prevent the disenfranchisement of individuals in BARMM, especially those aged 15 to 17 who wish to participate in the SK elections.
Nationwide voter registration will take place from July 1 to 11, covering new registrants, transfers, and reactivation of registrations.
Comelec Chairperson George Erwin Garcia clarified that BARMM registrants will only be eligible to vote in the barangay and SK polls, not in the Bangsamoro Parliamentary Election scheduled for October 13.
The inclusion of BARMM is still pending approval from the Comelec en banc.
