PDP-Laban asks SC to order manual recount of May 12 senatorial election
Manila Bulletin
|June 24 2025
The Duterte-allied Partido ng Demokratiko Pilipino Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) asked the Supreme Court (SC) on Monday, June 23, to direct the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to conduct a manual recount of the votes cast during the May 12 senatorial election.
In its supplemental petition for mandamus, the PDP-Laban—the political party of former president Rodrigo Duterte—told the SC its plea for a recount is mandated under Republic Act No. 9369, the Election Automation Law, and the provisions of the Omnibus Election Code.
The supplemental petition was filed by PDP-Laban National Vice Chairman Alfonso G. Cusi through lawyer Israelito P. Torreon.
The SC is now on its decisionwriting period and will resume sessions on July 1.
Last April 3, PDP-Laban filed a petition before the SC for the nullification of four Comelec resolutions that allegedly altered the voting process under election laws.
