Share TweetBy Leslie Ann AquinoThe Commission on Elections (Comelec) has no decision yet on the call of some lawmakers to extend the voter registration period. “That is under consideration right now,” Comelec spokesman James Jimenez said“The commission en banc will still have to decide on it,” he added. The Makabayan bloc in the House of Representatives earlier urged the poll body to extend to January 13, 2019 the voter registration for the May 2019 midterm elections. The schedule of continuing registration resumed on July 2, 2018 and will run until September 29, 2018.
