Comelec: Magkakaroon po ng limit sa dami ng pwedeng lumahok sa political rallies kung papayagan man iyong rally
Comelec: Even with the rallies, dapat may controls. Kailangan may distancing. Kung magkaroon ng violation, kailangan malaman kung sino ang dapat managot
Comelec: On Election Day, magbabago ang itsura ng polling precincts. For example, pagdating mo sa polling place, sasalubungin ka ng health screening. Kung medyo kuwestiyonable ang iyong kalusugan, papupuntahin ka sa isolation polling precinct at doon ka boboto
