00:44Next, the machines will undergo a pre-election logic accuracy test or pre-LAT.

01:07As of now, 47,000 ACMs have passed the pre-LAT and 63,000 ACMs are remaining.
01:16The COMELEC's target is to finish this before the second to third week of April or April 20, which is the right time for the deployment.
01:24Meanwhile, it has been three days since the local campaign started.
01:29The COMELEC's reminder to the candidates is strict that the election or campaign is not a war.
01:36It's good that the rules of the COMELEC are still respected.
01:41The COMELEC also continues to remind that the gun ban is still in force.
01:45As of now, anyone who is caught with a gun but without a certification from the pole body who carries a gun will face a penalty.
