What is Automated Election?
As far I know, Automated Election is a system from manual counting to computerize counting in which results could be known with in 2 days or 3 days. It could minimize cheating and a so called "dagdag bawas."
How it can help our government by this system?
For me, it has a big help on the part of the government like the following factors:
- Lesser expenses to be incurred due to decrease of manpower during the election.
- To ease the tension of suspension of cheating of both parties.
- It has a big possibility to have an accurate results of the election.
By those factors I mentioned I can assure that by this new system of election or by using this new technology on 2010 election the people are expecting of a good and fair results.

How it works:
Ease of Operation and Security
The flexibility of the SAES platform makes it possible to automate any election in accordance with the legal requirements of the governing electoral agency, the local voting customs and the socio-political factors of the host country.
We place paramount importance on the security and integrity of the entire electoral process.
That is we base our system on a series of encryption algorithms that safeguard the collection and transfer of every vote at each of the following verification points:
1.Voting receipt printed on special paper and identified with a random code to ensure the secrecy of the vote;
2.Fixed memory (internal) of every SAES machine;
3.Removable memory of every SAES machine;
4.Station tally from the voting table;
5.The electronic vote transferred to the tallying centers;
6.Electronic act transferred to the tallying centers;
7. The tallying act.
Each of these checkpoints ensures the transparency of the electoral process and together they provide the most complete guaranty available. They offer ample opportunities to pinpoint anomalies, if they occur, and early enough, to prevent them from becoming a big problem.
