The Oriental Negros and Dumaguete City offices of the Commission on Election are poised to verify the signatures of all voters who signed in the people's initiative campaign to change the Constitution during the barangay assemblies held late last week.
Manuel Advincula, COMELEC assistant regional director was in Dumaguete City early this week to start what he called the "menu of the day," or to begin the signature verification in compliance with the order of their central office.

The provincial and city election offices received the
order Monday.
