Election day day May 13, 2013, the picos machine was working

Angono, Rizal  PHL   May 13, 2013

Today marks midterm election to elect the LGU officials:   Governor, Board Member, Congressman
Mayor and councilors, senators and Party List.

The congressman has no opponent and how we wish there were opponents.  In the past elections, they had no chance.  So may be they just gave up.  Popular candidates and wealthy families dominate the election.

The crowd was big in the precinct located in a university system building.  As a senior citizens, we were given courtesy and priority.   It took me less than 2 minutes to fill up my ballots.  I did not vote many because I think they do not deserve to be voted.

However there were plenty of news at the TV where the ficos machine did not boot, lacked batteries etc.  I hope there would be no failure of elections

                                   Throng outside the precincts

                                  Where is our precinct?  The usual problem

                                The waiting area;   as seniors we were priorities

                                  The polling place inside the precinct

                      The ficos machine looks like the mounting is a garbage receptacle?

                                Voters have to personally insert the ballot at the ficos machine

                                   The chair waiting for 5s

                                       Hmm, one of the candidates?
