BUOYED by the success of the 'early voting hour,' the Commission on Elections (Comelec) plans to implement the scheme in the midterm elections and Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections (BSKE) in 2025.

'Our early voting hours [pilot implementation] is a 'blockbuster,'' said Comelec Chairman George Erwin Garcia of the project in Muntinlupa City that was participated in by 51,551 senior citizens and 2,179 persons with disability (PWDs). It was also pilot tested in Naga City.
