35. Philippines: Electoral reforms
My comment - your heart's in the right place, kid, but you've got to be kidding...!

What if we can hold the 2010 elections without printing ballots, without fear that ballot boxes would be stolen and switched and without worrying about “dagdag-bawas”? No, I am not talking about the kind of computerized voting that the Commission on Elections has in mind. Think hanging chad in the 2000 battle between Bush and Gore and we have to admit that’s not the way to go. I am talking about voting via text messaging or SMS.
