A study done by the Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG) maintained that there was massive electoral fraud in Biliran during the first nationwide automated polls last May 10.
TACLOBAN CITY, Philippines—A study done by the Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG) maintained that there was massive electoral fraud in Biliran during the first nationwide automated polls last May 10.
The survey, spearheaded by Nadja Castillo of the CenPEG, entitled “A Case Study: Biliran Province, Proving into a Possible Automated Cheating” under Project 3030 Research, cited possible electoral irregularities in the May 2010 national and local elections in the province.
The study said there were allegations that members of board of election inspectors (BEI) in one barangay in Caibiran town, Biliran, had falsified Comelec documents, particularly computerized voters’ list and voters’ registration records.
A case had been filed against the members of the BEIs for allowing “ghost” voters to vote.
The CenPEG study also noted the extension of voting hours in several barangays, including Barangay Iyusan in Almeria town, which paved the way for more irregularities, such as the presence of a barangay chair clad in a campaign shirt and giving orders who to vote for.
The study added that other irregularities included voting without a CF card from 7:30 a.m. to 11 p.m.; the failure to feed ballots into the PCOS machines; the entry into a voting precinct of a village watchman believed to be a supporter of the Espina clan; PCOS machines malfunctioning in Barangay Balaquid and Barangay Julita; erroneous date and time stamps on election returns (ERs) and the use of thermal paper without Comelec seal in printing ERs in three villages in Caibiran.
Citing the study, CenPEG said only the total number of votes for all municipalities was publicly shown during the proclamation and poll watchers were not able to make a comparison of votes during the canvassing due to the failure of BEIs to show the breakdown of votes from the precincts.
Lawyer Richard Alvin Japson, Biliran’s Comelec provincial election supervisor, had said the numbers were only for the municipality of Biliran, and not for Biliran province.
But based on statistics written on the board, reelectionist Rep. Glenn Chong got 39,659 votes compared to Rogelio Espina’s 40,010 votes in Biliran town, which only has 10,095 registered voters.
A brownout also took place while one Attorney Santos and representatives of an election watchdog, the PiNoy Lawyers, were questioning the vote statistics. Espina was declared winner in the congressional race when power was restored.
Former Makati City Rep. Teodoro Locsin Jr., then the chair of the House committee on suffrage and electoral reforms, said ERs from Biliran’s lone district showed huge discrepancies. Joey Gabieta, Inquirer Visayas

Biktima, naunsa ka na pod? ang usa ka study dili na mahimo kun kon one sided lang. may mga inputs kana nga gikan sa duha ka partido.mga ebidinsiya nga gikan usab sa duha ka partido.
kon an outcome sa study sa CENPEG mao ang massive electoral fraud in Biliran, therefore naa silay gibasihan o gigunitan nga lig-ong ebidinsya sa pagpanglimbong kadtong may 10, 2010 election dinhi sa biliran.
for your information Biktima, CENPEG is very independent institution funded by the European Union, just to research about the automated election around the globe. meaning, dili lang sa Pilipinas sila nagresearch, kundili sa tibook kalibutan.
sa lintunganay nga istorya, aduna silay igong integridad ug kredibilidad sa ilang gipagawas nga impormasyon..
mao kana Biktima. hunahuna daw?
PROJECT 30-30:
Action to Protect the Integrity of the Votes
and Transparency in the 2010 Election
Project 30-30 is an education and election monitoring project of the Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG) that aims to address the problem of electoral fraud by helping arrest the disastrous effects of the 30+ vulnerabilities of the Commission on Elections’ (Comelec) Automated Election System (AES). AES is being implemented for the first time throughout the Philippines in the May 20, 2010 synchronized national and local elections. The project also seeks to push for the implementation of the 30 safeguards and remedial measures to ensure the poll automation’s success.
A two-year project, Project 30-30 is funded by the European Union (EU) through the EU Delegation in the Philippines. Project partner organizations are the Coordinating Council for People’s Development and Governance (CCPDG), National Council of Churches in the Philippines (NCCP), Computer Professionals’ Union (CPU), National Union of People’s Lawyers (NUPL), and Health Alliance for Democracy (Head). CenPEG and its project partners have nationwide networks and alliances as well as public advocacy and education programs that will be tapped to meet the objectives of Project 30-30.
As an education and monitoring activity, Project 30-30 envisions to increase the level of understanding and capacity of the civil society community especially people’s organizations and NGOs on the complexities, vulnerabilities, and critical areas of the AES. It aims to cover and reach as many people and communities at the grassroots level in the broad efforts to safeguard their votes and counter election fraud. It will also seek wider consultations and unite the Filipino information communications technology (ICT) as well as legal profession enabling them to share their competencies and expertise in weeding out the glitches and risks that threaten the technological and legal integrity of the poll automation.
The results of the studies as well as concrete lessons derived from the two-year project will serve as the basis for electoral reform and the engagement of CenPEG, its project partners, and other election multi-stakeholders in advocating for electoral and political reform.
Project Activities
The Project 30-30’s main activities are:
1.Policy Research and Documentation
This project activity will basically continue CenPEG’s long-term and comprehensive study of the automated election system, centering on the system’s technical, management, and legal aspects. The study coverage will also deal on the AES’s 30 vulnerabilities and corresponding 30 safeguards that were identified by CenPEG as early as April 2009.
Along with the other project activities, study results in the form of reports and documentation will provide the basis for policy proposals that will address the paramount need for electoral reform in the search for fair, transparent, fraud-free, and democratic elections.
2.Voters’ Education and Training
Seminars and people’s forums will be organized across the country for the holding of voters’ education and training on the automated elections. Voters’ education and training aims to target leaders and volunteers from all walks of life including schools, ecumenical groups, grassroots and community organizations, and other sectors as well as special groups like poll watchers, human rights watchdogs, lawyers, and media.
The content of voters’ education and training include linking human rights and voters’ rights and responsibilities; the political environment of the elections and criteria for choosing candidates; the election process and the AES’ 30 risks and 30 safeguards; developing competencies and skills for poll watching and documentation; and the Election Monitoring Scoreboard.
3.Advocacy, Lobbying, and Campaign
This activity aims to raise the people’s awareness and civil society organizations’ (CSOs) involvement in instituting meaningful reforms in the country’s electoral system. Advocacy and lobbying will focus on drawing support from legislative bodies, political parties, and government officials toward the enactment of laws and policies central to democratizing and upgrading the election process.
4.Poll Watching and Monitoring
The formation of election monitoring watch teams is the most crucial, most demanding, and most action-oriented activity of Project 30-30. Through the joint efforts of all the project actors together with scores of civil society organizations, the project aims to form poll watch groups in all levels, from the national to the communities. Election watch, which will also involve monitoring the last stages of Comelec preparations for poll automation, as well as monitoring during and after the May 10 elections, aims to protect the vote, ensure the peaceful turnover of government, and is also geared toward electoral reform.
A special component of this project activity is the People’s International Observers’ Mission (PIOM). PIOM 2010 will monitor, investigate, document, and report the country’s first automated elections based on ground reports during the elections throughout the country. Members of the international observers mission will come from several countries, including parliamentarians, church leaders, civil libertarians, academic scholars, trade union leaders, students, human rights defenders, and media.
5.Networking and Multi-Stakeholders’ Dialogues
Nakabiktima, nagpakita ka na pod sa imong pagka ignorante. Kana si Joey Gabieta, mao na ang regular correspondent sa Philippine Daily Inquirer dinhi sa Eastern Visayas. “Gikan ra sa Tacloban” – matud pa nimo.
Kung walay nanggawas sa una nga mga balita sa Inquirer gikan dinhi sa Biliran, kini tungod kay gitambagan ni Jack ang mga Bandido nga tak-umon gayod nila ang ilang baba basta dunay mangutana sa ila nga taga Inquirer. Kay dili man mapagawas ang balita kong dili makuhaan ug statement ang ilang panig.
Mao nga ang mga balita sa electoral fraud sa Biliran sa una, gikan hinuon sa kalihukan sa House of Representatives Electoral Tribunal, unya si Rep. Glenn Chong ug Rep. Teddy Boy Locsin ang source. Way labot sa live TV coverage.
Apan usa ka exception ang pagbalita sa usa ka research report. Kay puwede dili na kuhaan ug statement ang mga Bandido. Mao ni ang nahinabo karon.
Maayo nga pagka plantsa ni nga research sa CenPEG. Ang tanang ebidensiya nga ilang gigamit dokumentado. Apan segurado pod nga gisundan nila ang tanan mga nasulat dinhi sa blogs. Kaso lang kay dili puwede mahimo nga basihanan ang blogs sa argumento sa research.
Tinuod gayud ang nasuwat sa research title, “A Case Study: Biliran Province, Proving into a Possible Automated Cheating.” Kay limbong gayud tong dako nga tinabangan mismo sa taga COMELEC nga hapusonon.
Nahimo na ang Biliran nga modelo sa tibuok kalibutan sa pagpanlimbong sa automated election ug unsaon sa pagsumpo niini. Mao ni ang mahimong kinadak-an nga kabilin ni Pugak ug sa iyang mga Bandido sa atong katilingban Biliranon.

Highlights of Cenpeg report

First Posted 20:38:00 11/20/2010
Filed Under: Barangay Elections
The Biliran chapter of Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV), the accredited watchdog in the May 10 elections, was not informed of the reconfiguration of CF cards.
In one barangay (village) in Caibiran, Biliran, Comelec documents were found falsified, including voters’ list and registration records. A case has been filed against members of the board of election inspectors in relation to this finding.
Sworn statements were issued saying a deceased resident and some who worked in Metro Manila or overseas on May 10 were recorded as having voted.
Extension of voting hours in Barangay Iyusan in Almeria town led to more irregularities.
Voting was extended until May 11 in several villages without prior Comelec approval.
In some areas, voting went on despite the absence of CF cards.
Election returns were stamped with the wrong date and time.
Results by precinct were not made public.
In five clustered precincts, results were retransmitted but the transmission showed a different Internet protocol address, not that of the PPCRV or Comelec.
A brownout took place while one Attorney Santos and representatives of an election watchdog, the PiNoy Lawyers, were questioning the votes’ statistics. Rogelio Espina was declared winner of the congressional race when power was restored.

ALL ABOUT CENPEG… SAMPAL MUKHA SA NING-QUESTION SA INTEGREDAD UG KREDIBILIDAD SA CENPEG:
ABOUT US
The Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG) is a public policy center established shortly before the May 2004 elections to help promote people empowerment in governance. Mindful of the elitist and patronage-driven character of the current electoral and political system in the country, CenPEG is especially advocating the democratic representation of the poor.
CenPEG adopts a governance perspective by examining critically the electoral and political systems that give rise to problems like corruption and underdevelopment using governance indicators of transparency, accountability and people participation. The center’s programs are aimed at securing political and electoral changes to help ensure people participation and nurture a culture of integrity in governance. It conducts research and policy studies, education and trainings as well as undertakes advocacy and community-based projects that help people participate as key players in governance.
FELLOWSHIP
CenPEG sees the vital role of local media, people’s organizations and the academe not only as effective sources and purveyors of information but as catalysts of change as well. To pursue its programs in research and education-training, CenPEG taps a wide pool of resource persons coming from diverse backgrounds but commonly advocating the highest ideals of public service in governance. CenPEG “Fellows” are comprised of political analysts, public policy experts, leaders from people’s organizations and academic scholars. They help conduct research on government performance and social investigation on governance concepts and practices. They contribute their knowledge, expertise and experience in public governance as well as in grassroots empowerment.
VISION – MISSION – GOAL
VISION
CenPEG envisions governance that is democratic and pro-people where the marginalized poor become active movers for change in government and society.
MISSION
To ensure the active participation of the marginalized sectors in decision and policy-making in government affairs, and on issues and programs affecting their rights and well-being, CenPEG is committed to
Put the marginalized people’s agenda (democratic rights and interests of workers, farmers, fisherfolk, indigenous and Moro people, women and youth) at the core of government policies and programs.
Promote governance that is empowering — participatory, sovereign, representative, and mass-based.
Advance the politics of change as alternative to one that is elitist and patronage-driven as part of a process to achieve fundamental societal changes.
GOALS
To work for and promote a unified framework of democratic governance among a wide range of groups with shared principles and values based on the people’s agenda and program for genuine development. Empowerment of marginalized sectors through policy studies, education and training that challenge the elitist character of governance in favor of one that is democratic, participatory and representative of the sovereign will of the people.
OBJECTIVES
Undertake critical policy studies and timely issue analyses.
Develop a comprehensive database program for electoral and political concerns.
Conduct education and training on issues, principles and practices of democratic governance for people’s organizations (POs), broad-based parties and groups.
Advocate politics of change and the people’s agenda as bases for good/honest governance
Support people’s initiatives, mobilizations and other forms of active intervention in state affairs
Promote stronger linkages and coordination among/between: elected people’s representatives and their constituencies, representative political parties, and concerned groups and individuals promoting people empowerment.
What CenPEG says about the three basic indicators of governance?
Transparency
”In a democratic state, transparency becomes integral to the whole process of governance as it promotes democratic access and the right of the people to public information.”
”Transparency is never decreed and is inherent in a democratic society. It allows the active participation of marginalized sectors’ in defining and shaping the destiny of a country.”
“To be transparent also means to be responsive to criticisms and open to change.”
Accountability
“Power-holders and decision-makers in government are accountable to the people by virtue of their being in the take of taxpayers’ money. Whether elective or appointive, public officials and their respective offices in government are beholden to, and therefore should be, in the service of what is in the interests of the majority of the people.”
“The people have every right to exact accountability from their leaders. Indicators of Public accountability include just laws, fair Judicial system, politically accountable Congress, democratic representation and consultations, honest elections, respect for human rights and transparent public transactions.”
People Participation
“People participation is not simply having a voice in decision-making, either directly or through established institutions. It is a process of empowerment that includes involvement in a wide range of activities — from planning, criticizing, assessing and developing concepts and ideas — that culminate in decision-making and implementation of laws, policies and programs.”
“Democracy is power of the majority. But in the country, the majority of the people are poor, marginalized and powerless. They are traditionally treated as simply ‘recipients’ or ‘beneficiaries’ of government services. For democracy to work and be vibrant, the marginalized sectors must become key forces in society. The essence of ‘democratic governance’ is that the majority should be made to exercise authority and influence over policies and decisions through the various institutions and processes of government. All efforts therefore should be geared towards building the capacities of these sectors to exercise power, engage in the processes of governance, and promote their basic interests.”

JUN DEL ROSARIO DECLINED A 3-MILLION OFFER FOR THE VICE GOVERNOR SEAT
Biliranisland.com
June 12, 2010
In Jun Del Rosario’s current FB status he stated that before the May 10, 2010 elections, two politicians phoned him to join and consider paying 3M to an operator in exchange to a sure win for Vice-Governor.
He said that he outrightly declined their offer to cheat.
The recent elections showed that JDR earned only 7,078 votes. Montejo won the Vice-gov seat with a total number of 27,337 votes. Other opponents like Curso and Gonzales had 27,337 votes and 6,610 votes respectively.
Does this mean that there was really an anomaly during the 2010 elections, and that those who were questioned only won because of digital fraud?
I can’t help but wonder and ask how much more did they pay for a sure Congressional and Gobernatorial seats?
JDR FACEBOOK EXPOSE:
“TWO POLITICIANS PHONED ME TO JOIN AND CONSIDER PAYING 3M TO AN OPERATOR IN EXCHANGE TO A SURE WIN FOR VICE-GOVERNOR.
I DECLINED BECAUSE OF PRINCIPLES, NOT JUST THAT I DON’T HAVE THE 3M. MY OWN EXPERIENCE IS SUGGESTING THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT TO COMMIT DIGITAL FRAUD IN THE ELECTION. I HOPE THEY DID NOT SUCCEED.
INTERESTINGLY, BOTH POLITICIANS WHO TALKED TO ME WON THE ELECTION, NATIONAL AND LOCAL POSITION.”
hu wld offer him?
he shld name names…
what a shame JDR…
if its true pangalanan mo…
wag mag tago sa kapa mo dear….hmmmm….
JDR is just riding on the publicity..
hahaha…loser!

Yeah ur right! JDR should clarify this issue to the public because it is his social responsibility rather than to hide this issue.
But at some some point, no need to reveal the names of those officials national and local position because by his statement alone it’s quite obvious that what he is referring to was the congressional and governatorial post in which it’s the two members of the Espinatuan were presently on the position.
Now what is the most intriguing points in this issue is that, while the Espinatuan and their doggy is claiming on radio and blogs as well that there was no election fraud happened last may 10 polls, here comes JDR imply something that there was really such a thing!
mao diay nga gagmay ra ang gipanghatag sa mga tawo nga monar during election period last may 10 polls, kay didto man diay sa operator sa election gibubo ang ilang mga tinulis sa katawhan.
Matud pa to, pila kaha’y nakolimbat ato sa operator aron lang makalingkod ang mga tikasan, limbongan ug kawatan nga mga Espinatuan?
Besides, ngano sad kaha noh nga wala man kini nila tubaga sa mga Espinatuan ug sa ilang mga doggy? SILENCE MEANS YES YOUR HONOR!
WLA NA ME MA SAY BUT ONLY THIS. ITS VERY CLEAR HOW KUNG GAANO KA MANDARAYA ANG MAG PAMELYA ESPINA. THEY ARE AFRAID NA MAWALA SILA SA KINALALAGYAN NILA KASI SIGURADONG LAHAT NG MGA KAYAMANAN NA KINURAKOT NILA GALING BILIRAN GOVERNMENT SIGURADONG MAWALA. PAANO NA SILA? SAAN SILA PUPULUTIN……………… DI PA MAN NGAYON BUT TIME COMES THAY WILL PAY MORE WHAT THEY OWE TO THE PEOPLE OF BILIRAN PROVINCE.
