00:11 In North Caloocan, some voters came early to avoid the crowd this election day.
00:18 Live from Bagong Silang Elementary School, we have first news with James Agustin.
00:24 James.
00:29 Good morning everyone.
00:30 Whatever time it is, the vote will start here in Bagong Silang Elementary School in North Caloocan.
00:36 But just a while ago, many of us came here to look for their clustered precinct.
00:43 At 5 in the morning, residents are already busy looking for their clustered precinct.
00:52 The locator map was placed in front of Bagong Silang Elementary School. More than 91,500 registered voters in Barangay 176, Bagong Silang.
01:02 The largest in the Philippines based on Comelec data.
01:06 The senior citizens, Dante and Ninita, came early to avoid the crowd.
01:12 They were well-trained by the candidates.
01:15 We are able to serve our community and meet the needs of Bagong Silang.
01:25 There are many candidates, but we need to be smart when we choose.
01:32 Because it happens only once in our life.
01:37 If you are not smart, the government will still be in trouble.
01:43 If you vote for someone who is not smart, nothing will happen to our lives.
01:47 The PWD also urged the residents to come here so they can finish voting.
01:52 I'm sure they will do well. They are not corrupt.
01:57 This is also the way the tricycle driver, Roderick, discarded. He said he will go to Masada after he gets his vote.
02:03 Our vote will help our community. Not all of them are corrupt. I see that the Filipinos are poor.
02:13 They cannot get a job. We should get the people who have love for us.
02:24 Inside the school, you can see the locator map.
02:28 This is so that the voters can easily find their vote.
02:32 The clustered precinct is only 170.
02:36 The two nearby schools were used for the majority of the vote.
02:40 In the covered court, this is the new school.
02:43 This is an accessible polling place for our senior citizens,
02:47 the Buntis and PWDs.
02:51 Earlier, there was a confusion because some senior citizens
02:55 saw the clustered precinct listed on the second and third floor.
03:01 But the teachers guided them to the covered court so they can vote this morning.
03:06 For now, the voting hasn't started yet in the new elementary school.
03:11 We can see that they are still arranging things inside the classrooms.
03:15 That is all for now. From North Caloocan, I am James Agustin for GMA Integrated News.
