Lawyer Alfredo Lazaro Jr., spokesman for Mega Pacific Consortium (MPC), said one vote-counting machine can read at least 50 ballots per minute and can accommodate 400 ballots per loading.


"Its reading speed capability is complemented by its 100 percent reading accuracy as certified by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST)," Lazaro added.

This was assured yesterday by the winning bidder in the Comelec’s automated vote counting and canvassing project to dismiss apprehension on the realibility of the counting machines during the actual elections.
