MANILA - A voter's ID is not required to participate in the Barangay and Sanggunian Kabataan elections on Monday, the Commission on Elections said.

"Kagabi may na-monitor kaming misinformation, sinasabi ng ilan na kung walang voter's ID, hindi makakaboto. Nagiging dahilan ito kung bakit maraming ayaw bumoto," Comelec spokesperson James Jimenez told radio DZMM.

(We monitored some misinformation last night with some claiming that you can't vote if you don't have a voter's ID. This has discouraged many people from voting.)

"Hindi po totoo iyan -- hindi kayo kailangang magpakita ng voter's ID para lang makaboto," he added.

(That is not true -- you don't need to present a voter's ID to cast your vote.)

Voters can bring any valid ID for election officers to verify their identity, he said.

Jimenez also reminded the public that taking photos of their filled out ballots is prohibited.
