MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Elections (Comelec) may require an additional budget of ₱1.3 billion to conduct the Bangsamoro Parliamentary elections following the postponement of the polls originally scheduled for October 13 this year.
According to Comelec officials, the delay means the poll body will need to restart most of its preparations, which has contributed to the increased funding requirement.
