                    [Summary] => After several weeks of anxiety, poll watchdog National Movement For Free Election (Namfrel) was finally granted accreditation yesterday by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to conduct a parallel quick count for the May 2004 elections.


Comelec Chairman Benjamin Abalos said the resolution granting the accreditation of Namfrel will be promulgated today but the decision was not unanimous since Commissioner Luzviminda Tancangco maintained her position against conducting an independent quick count.
