The Printing of EDCVL for Use in the May 10, 2010 National & Local Elections


IN THE MATTER OF THE PRINTING OF THE ELECTION DAY 
COMPUTERIZED VOTERS LIST (EDCVL) FOR USE IN THE 
MAY 10, 2010 NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTIONS

RESOLUTION No. 8838

Promulgation: 30 April 2010





WHEREAS, COMELEC Resolution No. 8786 requires the distribution of two (2) copies of the Election Day Computerized Voters List (EDCVL) to the members of the boards of election inspectors (BEI) for use in the May 10, 2010 automated national and local elections;

WHEREAS, the purpose of the second copy of the EDCVL is to ensure that in case a court or electoral tribunal will take possession of the EDCVL due to a pending electoral protest, the Election Officer will have an extra copy to be used in recording the voting history of the voters in his jurisdiction;

WHEREAS, the Information Technology Department (ITD), which is tasked to generate and print the EDCVL, has recommended that due to insufficient supply of toner being used for the printing, only one copy of the EDCVL be printed for the remaining 36.7% or 18,615,207 records still to be printed, and that for the cities and municipalities where two copies of the EDCVL have already been printed, the Election Officers shall be directed to provide only one copy of the EDCVL to the BEIs for use on election day;

WHEREAS, requiring the printing of two copies of EDCVL for the remaining 36.7% of the records may result in the ITD not being able to complete the printing of all EDCVLs in time for distribution to the BEIs for use on election day;

NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue of the powers vested in it by the Constitution, Omnibus Election Code, Republic Act No. 9369 and other election laws, the Commission RESOLVED, as it hereby RESOLVES:

  1. To approve the recommendation of the Information Technology Department that only one copy of the EDCVL be printed for the remaining 36.7% or 18,615,207 records still to be printed;

  2. For cities and municipalities where two copies of the EDCVL have already been printed, to maintain the instructions under Resolution No. 8786 that two (2) copies of the Election Day Computerized Voters List (EDCVL) shall be distributed to the members of the boards of election inspectors (BEI) for use on election day; and

  3. To ensure that the Election Officer will have an extra copy of the EDCVL to be used in recording the voting history of the voters in his jurisdiction even if a court or electoral tribunal will take possession of the EDCVL due to a pending electoral protest, to require the Election Officer to photocopy the EDCVL before issuing the same to the court or electoral tribunal.
Let the PMO Project Director implement this Resolution.
