This 2016 Philippine National and Local election, some 200,000 voters in selected areas in the country can conveniently vote in the malls. The Commission on Election (COMELEC) will implement for the first time the mall voting which is more convenient and accessible to voters.

COMELEC Chair Andres Bautista disclosed to reporters on Saturday night that 86 malls all over the country had been authorized to serve as voting precincts for the May 9 election.

The list of precincts in malls will be released by COMELEC in the coming days.

In the mall voting, persons with disabilities and senior citizens may be given a separate lane instead of a separate polling precinct for them.

COMELEC will be sending communications to the choosen malls for coordination and agreement for this 2016 Presidential election.
