MANILA. The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has uploaded the new ballot faces for the 2025 national and local elections on its official website, preparing for the resumption of ballot printing on Monday, January 29.
Comelec spokesperson John Rex Laudiangco confirmed the development to GMA News Online through a Viber message, highlighting that the updated ballot faces include the names of 66 senatorial candidates, 156 party-list groups, and local candidates vying for provincial, municipal, and congressional district positions.
The printing of official ballots was temporarily postponed last week following the Supreme Court’s issuance of temporary restraining orders (TROs) on the disqualification of certain candidates.
To compensate for lost time, the Comelec plans to print 1.5 million ballots daily, with the assistance of the National Printing Office (NPO), which has been deputized to ensure a smooth and timely production process.
Comelec Chairman George Garcia assured the public that despite the delays, the 2025 elections remain on schedule for May 12.
“The reprinting process will be completed promptly, ensuring readiness for the upcoming elections,” Garcia stated.
The updated ballot faces and resumption of printing are crucial steps in finalizing preparations for the national and local polls, as the Comelec works to uphold its commitment to a timely and transparent electoral process.
