Voter registration in Metro Manila still suspended

Voter registration in Metro Manila and Bulacan, Laguna, Cavite and Rizal will remain suspended this week due to the extended enhanced community quarantine, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) said on Sunday. Voter registration in other parts of the country will resume on April 5. Local election officer offices will receive applications every Monday to Thursday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Comelec targets to register at least 4.1 million new voters for the May 9, 2022 elections. Registration will end on Sept. 30.
