There are legitimate fears about the source code for the Precinct Counting Optical Scanners (PCOS), a tightly guarded secret known only to the foreign company to which the Comelec awarded the automation contract. That source code, which is the set of instructions installed in the machine to ensure the security of the count, canvass and electronic transmission of the results, must be released to and reviewed by PPCRV, Namfrel, media quick-count organizations and the political parties soonest, so that doubts about manipulated results can be allayed.
