“Tapos na ang botohan, local o overseas, ngayong May 12, 2025 National and Local Elections,” Commission on Elections (Comelec) said in  statement marred by concerns over machine malfunctions and overvoting,  2025 midterm elections have officially closed.

 Voting is done, local or overseas, this May 12, 2025 National and Local Elections.

However, voting is still ongoing for precincts with lines that span 30 meters from  polling precinct as of 7:00 in the evening. This is in line with Section 25 of Comelec Resolution 11076. 

Automatic  counting machine (ACM) will start printing election returns (ER) once  electoral board closes voting procedures. 

As of 7:31 in the evening, Comelec said  it has received 10,030 ERs. They are expecting total of 93,387. 

In  press conference, Comelec Chair George Garcia called  elections  success so far, despite  delays and  issues encountered in several areas. 

Some voters took to social media to complain about overvoting, including senatorial aspirant Teddy Casiño. Some people reportedly said  shading on their ballots bled through to the other side.

However, Comelec earlier said this is impossible, as  front and back pages of  ballot do not face each other.

Aside from reports of overvoting, several machines were also reportedly malfunctioning due to excessive heat.

Comelec said 311 machines had to be replaced overall, but they still considered this a success, as replacement rate was much lower compared to  2022 national elections.
