The Commission on Elections (COMELEC) has denied the request of the European Union Election Observation Mission to enter polling precincts for the upcoming elections. Chairman George Garcia cited the Omnibus Election Code, which restricts access to electoral board members, watchers, poll body representatives, and voters. Garcia is aware of potential consequences but insists on upholding the law.
