Satellite voter registration was recently conducted in Quezon City's Barangay 649 and Barangay Fairview.
The poll body recently resumed voter registration in Metro Manila and 4 surrounding provinces, which was suspended after the government placed the areas under enhanced community quarantine beginning late March due to an uptick of COVID-19 cases.
The commission also advised the public to check the social media accounts of local Comelec offices for satellite registration schedules.
Comelec Commissioner Marlon Casquejo earlier said the poll body might not reach its target of 62-63 million registered voters for the 2022 elections when registration ends on September 30.
