MANILA, Philippines - The Commission on Elections (Comelec) on Thursday sealed its partnership with Facebook to promote the May 9 elections.

Comelec Chair Juan Andres Bautista, Facebook executives Katie Harback and Elizabeth Hernandez signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) for the partnership.

The MOA also includes an agreement with Facebook to source out questions for Comelec's debates for presidential and vice presidential candidates.

The poll body recently announced its partnership with Twitter to enable voters to interact with top election candidates.

 

 

 

 

The Comelec earlier announced to move the start of ballot printing for the upcoming elections from February 1 to February 8.

The poll body moved the printing of ballots again as it is "still cleansing the lists of candidates."
