As per Comelec Website below are the result of Party List as of July 11,6PM.

An independent audit group came out with a report showing that elections in Maguindanao province was marred by fraud that largely benefited newly proclaimed senator Juan Miguel Zubiri.
In the 15-page Citizens’ Audit Report of the 2007 National Elections released on Friday, Halalang Marangal or the Network of Citizens for Honest Elections and Truthful Statistics, said Zubiri “is the biggest beneficiary of the Maguindanao certificates of canvass fraud because it puts him in the winning circle of senatorial candidates, dislodging Pimentel.”
Zubiri overtook Pimentel by a lead of 19,292 votes in the last tally of the Commission on Eelections. Comelec Chairman Benjamin Abalos Sr read during the July 14 proclamation of Zubiri that the administration senator got a total of 11,004,099 votes, while Pimentel garnered 10,984,807 votes.
Halal, however, said that an audit of Comelec tallies from Maguindanao would show that Zubiri’s lead over Pimentel in Maguindanao was “statistically impossible.”

But QTV-11 television reported that Pimentel’s supporters plan not to protest his defeat, but to express their dismay over the election process.

It said no details of the protest action were immediately available, but Pimentel planned to meet with his supporters to discuss the matter.

Pimentel was dismayed over the high court’s decision that paved the way for the proclamation of Zubiri, who was proclaimed at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) Saturday morning.

For his part, Zubiri said he was willing to put the rivalry behind him and to get to work in the Senate under the 14th Congress. - GMANews.TV

The Commission on Elections Monday proclaimed the first 13 winners in the Philippine party-list elections held on May 14, allowing at least their first nominees to finally sit in the 14th Congress.

In a six-page resolution, the Comelec, sitting as the National Board of Canvassers, proclaimed the following

Buhay with 1,163,218 votes

Bayan Muna, 927,730

Cibac, 760,260

Gabriela, 610,451

Apec, 538,971

A Teacher, 476,036

Akbayan, 470,872

Alagad, 423,076

Butil, 405,052

Coop-Natco, 390,029

Anakpawis, 376,036

Alliance of Rural Concerns, 338,194

Abono, 337,046

Hope they serve well in our country and lets hope they can pass a bill that will be of advantage to Filipinos. 

Based on the Commission on Election’s latest senatorial tally, the lead of Genuine Opposition candidate Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III over TEAM Unity’s Juan Miguel Zubiri has dwindled to only 501 votes.

If the Supreme Court will not give any order to stop the counting from Maguindanao. Pimentel might be thrown out by Zubiri. Pantar and from Bogo would be crucial in determining the last winning senator.Pantar has a voting population of 10,000 while Bogo has 20,000.

The senatorial canvass report No. 28 showed Pimentel with 10,971,362 votes and Zubiri with 10,970,861 votes, giving the GO candidate a mere 501-vote edge over the TU bet.

I just don’t know If I will still believe on that counts. Knowing that there are some Comelec Official held in question in one of he province that gave a 12-0 result favoring Administration bet.

The Filipinos after 38 days from E-day is still waiting for the 12th slot in Senate. There is still a chance for Zubiri to be in and defeat Pimentel.

Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III

Genuine Opposition (GO) candidate Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III said he was  filing in the Supreme Court on Wednesday a petition to stop the Commission on Elections from canvassing disputed vote tallies from Maguindanao, which could push Juan Miguel Zubiri of Team Unity (TU) past him in their battle for the last Senate slot.

Miguel Zubiri

Zubiri has been urging the Comelec to go ahead with the tabulation of the Maguindanao votes.

TU lawyer Romulo Macalintal said his clients would join the Abalos trip and thus end the controversy plaguing the Maguindanao voting results.”TU is ready to go there and see for itself the proof that elections  were held in Maguindanao, based on the documents that the election officers are said to present,” he said.

The Comelec

The comelec is also doing their part by going to to General Santos City of a three-man Comelec panel led by Chair
Benjamin Abalos for a meeting with Maguindanao poll officials on alleged vote fraud in the province during the May 14 elections.

Instead of going directly to Maguindanao, the Comelec panel has decided to meet with the province’s 22 election officers and their provincial supervisor, Lintang Bedol, in General Santos City.

My Opinion

To the Comelec do your part as soon as possible so that your institution will not be in question by any parties. I just wonder why did the Comelec only act now, The votes from Maguindanao has been in question for almost a month now after they deliver a 12-0 votes. All investigation should already be done before and not only now.

What about you? Who do you want to win is it Juan Miguel Zubiri or Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III. Do you believe that there is really a question a Maguindanao Votes?

Finally Trillanes will be proclaimed on Friday ,

MANILA, Philippines — Detained opposition candidate Antonio Trillanes IV is the 11th senator-elect and is set to be proclaimed Friday, Commission on Elections (Comelec) chairman Benjamin Abalos said Thursday.

The decision to proclaim Trillanes, a former Navy lieutenant, was made by the Comelec, sitting as the National Board of Canvassers, after finishing the canvass of votes from Surigao del Norte.

Everybody who believes in the platform and what would Trillanes do for the Philippines is now happy. But ofcourse there are some Government personlaities which are not happy on what happened to Trillanes. One of which is Armed Forces of the Philippines chief of staff General Hermogenes Esperon

“It’s not really the most welcome thing for me,” Esperon told reporters in a chance interview in Malacañang. “But to be frank about it, I have nothing to do with this election.”

If I where Esperon I will just keep my mouth shut and be independent from Politics. The Armed forces of the Philippines should not comment on any political Issue from Philippines and show their independence from the politics. And always remember their mandate to defend the constitution

In 2004, at the end of her six-year term as senator, she unsuccessfully ran as Vice-President alongside the late presidential candidate Fernando Poe Jr, an action star more popularly called “FPJ” and dubbed “The King of Philippine Movies” who was President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo’s closest rival. Legarda protested her loss to another former broadcast journalist, Noli de Castro, who was Mrs Arroyo’s running-mate.

Escudero (17,858,416), 38, is outgoing Minority Leader of the House of Representatives.

He was on his third and last three-year term as Representative of the 1st District of Sorsogon province.

Lacson (15,261,999), 59, was first elected to the Senate in 2001, ranking 10th. Former President Joseph Estrada, shortly after his election in 1998, appointed Lacson to head the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Task Force (Paoctf) and later in 2001, as chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP).

Lacson is a member of Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Class of 1971, which has gained some notoriety for producing several officers who took part in the 1986 EDSA “people power” uprising but later led coup attempts against former President Corazon Aquino in the late 1980s.

Aquino (14,052,166), 47, served three consecutive terms as Representative of the 2nd district of Tarlac province from 1998-2007.

He is a son of former President Corazon Aquino.

Cayetano (11,560,083), 36, served three consecutive terms as Representative of Taguig-Pateros from 1998-2007.

He is probably best known as a vocal critic of First Gentleman Jose Miguel “Mike” Arroyo, whom he accused of stashing hundreds of millions of dollars in bank accounts overseas. Arroyo has vehemently denied the accusation.

A former Army colonel who played a key role in the 1986 EDSA “people power” uprising, he later led several coup attempts against former President Corazon Aquino in the late 1980s. He is probably the most famous member of the PMA Class of 1971.

Renegade military forces led by Honasan later signed a peace accord with the government of former President Fidel Ramos and were granted amnesty.

Ana Consuelo “Jamby” Madrigal, Aquilino “Nene” Pimentel Jr, Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr, and Manuel “Mar” Roxas II.

Alfredo Lim, who is supposed to be only midway in his six-year term as senator, will leave the Senate after he was elected Mayor of Manila. Lim’s departure means that even after all 12 vacant Senate seats are filled, the chamber would have only 23 members.

PRESS RELEASE by Citizens Watch [citizens.watch [at] yahoo [dot]com]
June 5, 2007

Now, it’s “Hello, Maguindanao!”

The controversy on the purported election results in the province of Maguindanao that gave the Team Unity (TU) slate a 12-0 victory that “no one actually believes,” could be the next “Hello, Garci” scandal, that will continue to hound the Arroyo administration—including its senatorial candidates.

This was stressed by Citizens’ Caucus for Effective Governance, a network of development non-government organizations, policy think-tanks and citizens’ movements working towards the deepening of Philippine democracy, grassroots empowerment and sustainable development, after more than a hundred chairpersons and members of the province’s Board of Election Inspectors (BEI’s) who were kidnapped by armed men and forced at gunpoint to sign filled-up ballots started to reveal the details of the crime.

Maguindanao delivered a 12-0 sweep for TU amid allegations that no real election took place in the province, and that the “election results” were fabricated.

“The Maguindanao issue reveals election crimes at the highest level. The cheating operations done there should be exposed in detail, and, the perpetrators should be punished for electoral sabotage,” said Citizens’ Caucus.

“The BEI chairpersons and members should be spared from the prosecution, and even provided with ample protection and even reward for their brave, patriotic act,” the group added

The canvassing of the Maguindanao Certificate of Canvass (COC) has been stalled just because of the failure of the chairman of the provincial board of canvassers to appear before the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) en banc sitting as the National Board of Canvassers (NBC) at the Philippine International Convention Center in Pasay City. Reportedly, the COMELEC en banc will meet this week to decide on what to do with the province’s COC.
Citizens’ Caucus expressed alarm at the statement made by TU that it is “still confident of winning based on the Maguindanao COC.”

The group said it supports the calls made by the Genuine Opposition and election watchdog groups to declare a failure of elections in Maguindanao and exclude the province’s COC from the national canvassing, because the inaction of the COMELEC and the persistent claims of victory by TU based on the province’s COC reveal a “grand cheating design.”

The Citizens’ Caucus members include the Convergence for Community Centered Area Development (CONVERGENCE), Philippine Rural Reconstruction Movement (PRRM), the La Liga Policy Institute (LLPI), Rural Enlightenment and Accretion in Philippine Society (REAPS), and the Kilusan para sa Makatarungang Lipunan at Gobyerno (KMLG).
