Leading broadcast media company GMA Network, in partnership with the Commission on Elections (COMELEC), held a special voters registration at the GMA Network Center on April 6.
The special voters registration, initiated by GMA Integrated News, was open to all GMA Network employees, talents, and subsidiaries.
“For GMA Integrated News, it is part of our advocacy not just to cover elections but also to be at the forefront in championing an inclusive, accessible electoral process. We take to heart our “mas malaking misyon, mas malawak na paglilingkod sa bayan,” says Oliver B. Amoroso, Senior Vice President and Head of GMA Integrated News, Regional TV, and Synergy.
GMA Network employees who participated in the special voters registration were pleased that the entire process took no more than ten minutes.
As part of its preparations for the 2025 midterm elections, COMELEC launched the “Register Anywhere” program on Feb. 12. This program aims to make the voter registration process easier by bringing it to various schools, designated malls, churches, and offices, such as GMA Network.
Besides encouraging new voters to register, the program is also for disenfranchised voters who have not voted for the past two elections or more and wish to re-activate their voter registration status. Voters may also transfer their registration or correct their registration data. According to COMELEC, since the launch of “Register Anywhere,” voter registration has reached 1.7 million.
Through the years, GMA Network has provided Filipinos with the widest, most comprehensive, and most trusted election coverage. Viewers can expect this once more in the upcoming 2025 midterm elections.
