Comelec set to proclaim 12 winners in Senate race

WITH almost 100 percent of election results already transmitted, the Commission on Elections, sitting as the National Board of Canvassers (NBOC), is expected to proclaim all 12 winning senators this week.

Comelec Chairman Juan Andres Bautista on Sunday said that with more than 96 percent of the local Certificates of Canvas (COC) already canvassed and 100 percent of all votes in 82 Philippine overseas post already tallied, the NBOC is likely to proclaim the senators-elect either by Tuesday (May 17) or at the latest by Thursday (May 19).
