63 or 64 party-list seats?
May 17, 2025
|Manila Bulletin
A question over the total number of party-list seats has prompted the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to call for formal position papers from concerned parties before finalizing the allocation and proclamation of winning groups in the 2025 midterm elections.
-
During Thursday's session of the National Board of Canvassers (NBOC), lawyer Karlo Domondon of the Phil-RECA Party-list filed a manifestation and motion on the declared number of party-list seats. Domondon asserted that, contrary to the earlier statement of Comelec Chairman George Erwin Garcia that there are 63 seats up for allocation, the correct number should be 64.
"According to our computation, Your Honor, with all due respect, we believe that the seats must be 64, and it is contained in our motion," Domondon stated, requesting that the issue be resolved before the end of the canvass.
