Satellite Voters' Registration in Taft Campus




To the Benildean Community,

Greetings of peace and solidarity!

On May 13, 2013, Filipinos will once again go to the polls and exercise their right to vote.
Voters’ registration is crucial in the exercise of every citizen’s right of suffrage. As a
registered voter, Filipinos will be able to freely elect their representatives into office and
make them accountable.

It is in this spirit that the Center for Social Action in partnership with the Commission on
Satellite Elections Manila City, District 5 will have a Satellite Voters’ Registration on September 8,
2012, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm at the Greenway Square, Taft Campus. The Satellite Voters’
