We have another election coming later this quarter andIm sure everyone might not be aware of the deadlines and timelines of COMELEC. So here I msharing you dates for your information. Voter’s registration for the barangay and SK elections will be July 22-31.  The polls will be held on October 28. People aged 15  and not more than 18 on the date of the elections can register as SK poll voters. If you’ll be 18 on October 29, then you are qualified to register.
