Dave LLavanes Jr., writing for GMA News;

All Philippine consulates in the United States will implement online voting for the upcoming midterm elections in May of next year.

New York Consul General Senen Mangalile said this is part of Commission on Elections (COMELEC) Resolution No. 11061 which directs Philippine embassies and consulates in the US to implement internet-based online voting.

Hopefully they also implement online voting in other embassies and consulates, so other OFW can place their votes.
