These unopposed candidates only need 1 vote to win. That’s all.
ABS-CBN says that these candidates only need 1 vote to win. That’s all. See how peaceful it is in Philippine politics? Saves the country some money. No smart counting needed. Not even 1 plus 1 because you only need 1.
Some people are just lucky. It’s like winning the lottery. How in the world that they are running unopposed? No clue. But here are the lucky candidates – the list of unopposed candidates.

I cant believed this, Representative ng Bohol walang nag-challenged, and I considered him the biggest thief in Agricultural history, Arthur Yap.
According to my friend who resides in Bohol, Arthur Yap can’t even speak Bisaya.
Her mother daw is originally from Bohol that’s why he’s ‘qualified’ to represent said district.
Teka may 4th district na ba ang Bohol??? The last time I knew had only 3 congressional districts dun.
Bol-anon pala si Arthur Yap? Kelan pa? Nung binasbasan ni Arroyo na doon siya kumandidato sa Bohol?
OMG!
I can’t believe nobody stood up to challenge him. Oh well, baka kapartido din. Gosh.
Funny that the first few comments here ay si Arthur Yap ang napansin. Hahaha
Ay sorry, it’s not really funny. Nakaka-bother!
more bothered with ARMM. Still so many Ampatuans!!!
walastek!!! chicken!!!
pag nagdaya pa naman yan, ewan ko na lang!!!
WTF?
[...] I saw this post in Barrio Siete – a list that contains the names of unopposed candidates from different locations in our country. I am wondering how COMELEC just let this pass. How can they call the elections in those locations? Election pa ba ang matatawag kung unopposed ang mga candidates sa lugar ninyo? [...]
sino sya? (YAP) tamad akong mag-google hahaha!
Ate Reynz, former secretary ng Dept. of Agriculture.
fools vote for who they deserve. they want change, complain about everything but they are too coward to change their leaders by starting with the only power they have- the power to vote.
