The network’s coverage goes beyond the television, of course. Digital is a big part of the day The Filipino Votes and CNN Philippines will be there with the voter. CNNPhilippines.com will provide a multi-platform election experience. CNNPhilippines.com will livestream round-the-clock election coverage, hourly recaps of the latest election news, profiles of national candidates, in-depth look at each presidential candidate’s platform of government, voter education material to better understand the issues and candidates, and an interactive map where presidential candidates have campaigned throughout the election period.

 

The comprehensive coverage comes on the heels of the network’s widely-acclaimed leg of the PiliPinas Debates 2016 series, noted by both political analysts and social media pundits as the standout in the series, and its recent successes at the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas’ 24th Golden Dove Awards, where the network took home six awards: Best TV Public Service Announcement (Metro-Wide Earthquake Drill 2015), Best Special Program (The Story of the Filipino People: Yolanda), Best TV Newscaster (Mitzi Borromeo). Best TV Magazine Program (Leading Women), Best Sports Program (Sports Desk), and Best TV Culture and Arts Program (What I See – Season 3).

 

“Our mission is to keep earning the trust of audiences in the country – through the high standards of journalism that come with the three letters, CNN. We have an opportunity to further demonstrate that on Election Day, says Armie Jarin-Bennett, Executive Vice President and Managing Editor of CNN Philippines.
