[Title] => Ang absentee voting law ni Tito Sotto
[Summary] => ISYU ngayon ang absentee voting law para makaboto ang mga Pilipinong nasa ibang bansa. Si COMELEC Chairman Abalos mismo ay dismayado dahil kakaunti ang bilang ng mga rehistradong absentee voters sa ibayong dagat. Nakalimutan na yata na may ganyang batas.

[Title] => 22 bagong korte inaprub ng Senado
[Summary] => Nakakasiguro na ng mabilis na prosesong hudikatura ang bansa matapos na aprubahan ng Senado ang may 22 bagong korte sa kapuluan.
Bukod sa pagbuo ng mga korte, ipinasa rin ng Senado ang Judiciary Compensation Act, Anti-Money Laundering Act, Anti-Trafficking of Women Act of 2003, Dual Citizenship Act, at ang 2004 Absentee Voting Law.
Ayon kay Senate Majority Leader Francis Pangilinan, malaking tulong ito upang mabawasan ang mga nakabinbing kaso sa mga korte lalo na sa mga malalayong lalawigan.

[Title] => Jinggoy humirit ng biyahe sa US
[Summary] => Dalawang oras ang inabot kahapon nang pagbibilang ng joint committee na tumatayong National Board of Canvassers sa certificate of canvass mula sa Sweden na mayroon lamang 43 boto.
Alas-10:45 ng umaga nagbukas ang sesyon ng komite pero halos ala-una na nakapagsagawa nang pagbibilang ng CoCs dahil pinagtalunan pa rin ang ‘rules’ o panuntunan.
Hindi rin agad nakapagbilang ang joint committee dahil kinuwestiyon ni Makati Rep. Agapito "Butz" Aquino ang kawalan ng quorum dahil late ang ilang miyembro ng Senado at Kamara.

[Title] => Abalos: Polls to push through
[Summary] => Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman Benjamin Abalos and members of a joint Senate-House oversight committee on the May 10 elections assured the nation yesterday that the polls will push through as scheduled.
In a hearing presided over by committee co-chairman Sen. Edgardo Angara, Abalos and lawmakers rejected a suggestion from former Comelec chairman Christian Monsod for the procurement of a special watermarking machine that would print additional security marks on ballots and election returns because it would mean postponing the elections.

[Title] => Finally, into the modern age?
[Summary] => Voters will remember 2003 as the year the Commission on Elections (Comelec) rushed into the computer age in preparation for the first automated polls in the country’s history.
After decades of counting votes by hand, the poll body became online in 2003 to ensure the automation of the May 10 national and local elections, which could prove to be the most crucial in the country’s troubled history.
Chairman Benjamin Abalos said the Comelec is pressed for time, and that they have taken some measures to speed up some processes.
