00:00On the other news, after PPCRV Chair Anna Simpson's explanation, the issue of a mismatch on the number of registered voters against the number of valid ballots.
00:11A valid ballot is one that has been scanned and counted once, but then there are occasions when ballots get scanned multiple times before the machine took it and came out the other end successfully.
00:26Hence, this was the reason why the number in the role of registered voters did not sync or match with the number of votes actually counted.
00:37The latter being the number that is likely higher than the real number of registered voters in the poll body's role.
00:44Then again, the poll body officials or those doing the count or focus on the valid vote count or the ones that were actually counted.
00:53Thus, the PPCRV is assured of no mass discrepancy or irregularity between the unofficial parallel vote counts of both the PPCRV and NAMFRL against the poll body's numbers or figures.
