42 party-list groups delisted by poll officials

THE Commission on Elections (Comelec) on Tuesday invalidated 42 party-list groups for the 2025 midterm polls, citing failure to meet legal requirements for accreditation.

Resolution 11071, promulgated by the Commission en banc, said 11 of the 42 were removed for their failure to participate in the last two preceding elections, while the remaining 31 failed to obtain a seat in the second round of seat allocation for the party-list system in the last two preceding polls.
