MyKodigo by GMA Network: Sample Voting Tool for PH Elections

MyKodigo is a free and easy-to-use tool designed to help you choose the candidates you want to vote for.
It lets you mark your preferred candidates and print the list.
On election day, bring this printout with you to make voting faster and smoother.

This tool is especially useful because mobile phones and digital devices are not allowed inside polling precincts on May 12.
That means you won’t be able to rely on screenshots or notes on your phone.
With a printed MyKodigo, you can stay organized and focused.

Although this service is not officially run by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC), it can still be a helpful way to prepare.
And don’t worry—none of your data is saved or shared with Comelec or GMA Network.

Why Plan Your Vote in Advance?

We all want to make smart choices when we vote.
But inside the polling station, things can get confusing.

There’s pressure.
The ballot is long.
You might forget names.
And you won’t be able to check your phone.

By using MyKodigo, you can prepare in advance and avoid these common problems.
Think of it as your own personal checklist.

It can help you:

  • Focus on the names that matter to you
  • Avoid mistakes like overvoting
  • Save time while casting your ballot
  • Reduce stress on election day

It’s a simple move, but it makes a big difference.

Is MyKodigo Official?

This is one of the most common questions.
The answer is no, MyKodigo is not an official Comelec service.

  • It will not affect your ballot or vote in any way
  • Comelec will not collect or use your MyKodigo info

Why It’s Better to Be Prepared

Elections can feel overwhelming.
You might face long lines, heat, or pressure from people around you.

When you bring a printed guide, you’re less likely to feel lost or rushed.
You can focus on what really matters—making your voice heard.

It also helps reduce mistakes like:

  • Overvoting (choosing more than allowed)
  • Undervoting (forgetting someone you meant to vote for)
  • Writing the wrong name

Even a small tool like MyKodigo can help protect your vote.

Make It a Habit: Prepare Every Election

MyKodigo is not just for this year.
You can use the same approach for future elections.

Here’s why that matters:

  • You’ll form a healthy voting habit
  • You’ll encourage others to do the same
  • You’ll be more involved in the decisions that affect your life

Every vote counts.
And when you’re ready, your vote becomes even more powerful.

So, whether it’s your first time voting or your tenth, try using MyKodigo.
It’s a smart, simple step that can make a big difference.
