Elections shape our future, and understanding how they work is just as important as casting our votes. Through the Blue Vote Program, in partnership with COMELEC XI, a COMELEC Automated Counting Machine (ACM) Demonstration was held last February 17, 2025, at the 8th Floor Media Room, CCFC Building, Ateneo de Davao University. This event aimed to enhance public awareness of the electoral process and highlight the role of technology in ensuring transparent and credible elections.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Atty. Fatima Adin, Regional Election Director of COMELEC XI, for guiding us through the process, and to our Political Science students for their active participation. This event was made even more meaningful with the support of the Political Science faculty, under the leadership of Ms. Rhoda O. Emilio, whose commitment to voter education continues to inspire the
next generation of informed and engaged citizens. Every election is an opportunity to create real change.

Let us stay informed, engaged and committed towards peaceful and honest elections.
