.Namfrel urges the poll body to fix the glitches because: 'Every vote counts.'
The sporadic glitches of the transmission server brought suspicions of possible cheating in the counting of votes of the automated elections.
It urged municipal and election officers to transmit the unreported ERs as their numbers may still change the ranks of the senatorial candidates, particularly the one in the 12th place. As of press time, the Comelec transmission server showed partial unoffical results with Bong Revilla at the 10th place, Koko Pimentel at the 11th, Nancy Binay at the 12th, JV Ejercito Estrada at the 13th and Bam Aquino at the 14th.“Election 2019: From simultaneous transmission at precinct level to a newborn animal called transparency server a.k.a. traffic controller. Why?” Lacson tweeted on May 15.
According to the watchdog’s data, failed transmission rates were as follows: 9.5% of 76,528 ERs in 2010, 24% of 78,193 ERs in 2013, and 3.5% of 92,506 ERs in 2016.However, Namfrel notes that Comelec doesn’t disclose the aggregation process to the public.
