ARMM votes today.

Democracy is at work as the Administrative Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) votes today. And based on initial reports, the election is going smoothly despite of clashes between the government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front in North Cotabato.

Reports had it that all voting centers in Maguindanao, Lanao del Sur, Basilan, Sulu, Tawi-tawi and Shariff Kabunsuan have opened and there are people queueing to vote.

This election will also put the automated election to the test as voters will use voting machines. Results of the automated polls are expected after 36 hours at the latest.

I do hope that this election will continue to go smoothly. I guess it’s high time for us to have a true, credible and peaceful election.
