Six party-list groups are guaranteed at least 2 seats in the House of Representatives, according to the latest partial and unofficial tally.
These results are based on partial, unofficial tallies as of 6:21 pm Wednesday based on a total of 56,093,665 votes processed, representing 97.37% of the election returns sourced from the Commission on Elections’ (Comelec) Media Server.
The party-list groups that have reached at least 2% of the total vote share, which automatically gives them one seat are the following:
- Akbayan Citizens’ Action Party (AKBAYAN)
- Duterte Youth Party-List (DUTERTE YOUTH)
- Tingog Sinirangan (TINGOG)
- Pagtibayin at Palaguin ang Pangkabuhayang Pilipino (4PS)
- Anti-Crime and Terrorism-Community Involvement and Support, Inc. (ACT-CIS)
- Ako Bicol Political Party (AKO BIKOL)
Party-list groups that receive at least 2% of the total party-list votes are entitled to one seat in Congress and the top performing group can get a maximum of three seats.
The Comelec, however, may still award seats to groups that fall below this threshold in order to fill the 20% quota for party-list representation in the House.
Only six out of 55 winning party-list groups surpassed the 2% vote share requirement in the 2022 elections.
In the 2019 elections, only eight out of 51 winning groups crossed the 2% threshold.
