Seminar for COMELEC Poll Watcher

         May 13, 2013, Election Day. Manny people will be choosing among those people who run and admiring for different position.it is not new to us that during Election they are many anomalies that would happen, like for example Vote buying,paying the voters in order to vote the candidate, and especially those persons in charge in the machine that we are using the PCOS  machine and the teacher that are assigned in tallying the votes of the people. In order to minimize this kind of practices the COMELEC or the individual candidate provided a watcher to secure that theirs no anomalies that would happen.

         May 7, 2013 yesterday, as one of the COMELEC poll watcher in our Barangay, TAMUGAN MARILOG DISTRICT DAVAO CITY Cluster # 1122 our chairman decided to have a seminar regarding with the traits and behavior of the watcher inside the precinct.Together with the Brgy.officials, COMELEC In charge, and the other poll watcher.As what I had learned  yesterday that some of the traits, behavior or status of the watcher is that first, they  should be a registered voter in your city,you are able to vote.Second, you should be a  citizen in the place that you are watching off. Third, as a COMELEC poll watcher you will not depend any candidate who aspiring for different position.Fourth, part of the watchers job is to assist, giving information to those people who will vote for the first time, those senior citizen, disabled persons and as what i had experienced it is not easy to handle this kind of people, as a watcher you should be patient  and humble in dealing with those people. As a watcher we should be responsible in those votes that  people had we should also tallying manually the votes in order to check the result if it is correct or not and to make sure that all people in the cluster could vote, because by their vote the condition of our nation might change.

        As I had the seminar, I learned a lot,I understand the the work of those people who are serving during the election and it is not an easy task. I realized that serving people is a great pleasure especially during this election in order to secure that their no votes that will be lost, and with this simple act I can show my  love to our country.
