00:00But after we called them, there were duplicates.

00:03So maybe Komelek, you were missing some of your ERs because some of them got sent to us.

00:07Sometimes they sent us all the pre-election ERs, and that's why we got 71.

00:12But when we called out all the duplications, we ended up with 61,482 scanned ERs.

00:21And if you look at that, that's equivalent to 38.3 million voters.

00:26Out of 69 million population of voters.

00:31So our database actually comprised 54.9% of all the voting public.

00:40That is the biggest audit of any election at 54.9%.

00:45It's not a sampling anymore. It's actual. And it's huge.

00:49So what did we discover?

00:50After 38 days, after more than 10,000 volunteers, we discovered,

00:56five issues. Five, okay?

00:59And out of those five issues, what were they?

01:02In Precinct 1, 2, 4, 720, the issue was,

01:06there was an additional one vote for Garcia and Gerardo in the local ER,

01:10and one additional in the physical, and then in the second precinct with an issue,

01:20it was also plus one in the Senators, minus two in the ERs, and minus one again in the physical ER.

01:28The third, same story, for the fourth and fifth, they actually sent us final testing and sealing reports.

01:36So everything was zero.

01:38So of all of these five, these last two are not mismatches.

01:43They are wrongly sent ERs.

01:45They should not have sent us the FTS.

01:48They should have sent us the ER.

01:49So really, we found three.

01:52Three issues. Three.

01:54So if we move on, I would like to note that this is notably low.

01:59It is our lowest.

02:00And as such, we got our highest match rate of 99.909.

02:06But when we got this, we were like,

02:08aha, it was an aha moment for us because these are audit logs of the precincts.

02:14Why is it an aha moment, especially for William, Ronald, and me?

02:18For the past years, we have been begging Comelec to give us the audit logs.

02:23Why are the audit logs important?

02:25They will show you the activity of each ACM.

02:29It will tell you.

02:31It's an audit of what each ACM did.

02:33And we have been asking for that since 2010.

02:36Yes?

02:37We never got them.

02:38Today, in 2025, we did.

02:40And we're actually showing them to you.

02:43The audit logs.

02:43Now, we have our own interpretations because we read the audit log.

02:47But we will leave them please to Comelec to explain,

02:50to tell us what happened to those three issues.

02:54Now, the unofficial parallel count, as we said, 38 days,

02:58three days matches, 99.909 match rate.

03:01And we are asked, is it worth the bother?

03:05And all of us say, of course it is.

03:07Because that is our advocacy.

03:08Our advocacy is for CHAM elections.

03:11Elections that are clean, even if we have to dig for the data.

03:15For honest, we will work for that, that are accurate.

03:18And that's what we're doing here.
