MANILA, Philippines — Fifteen party-lists, mostly incumbents, are leading the latest pre-election survey conducted by the OCTA Research group.

The survey, conducted from Jan. 25 to 31, found that 15 party-lists have received the support of at least two percent of the survey respondents.

Still leading the list is ACT-CIS with the support of 6.46 percent of the respondents, followed by 4PS (5.62 percent), Duterte Youth (3.95 percent), FPJ Panday Bayanihan (3.84 percent), Tingog (3.63 percent), Uswag Ilonggo (3.49 percent), Galing sa Puso or GP (3.43 percent), Ako Bicol (2.9 percent), Abang Lingkod (2.38 percent), 4K (2.34 percent), Senior Citizens (2.27 percent), AGAP (2.27 percent), Agimat (2.25 percent) Malasakit@Bayanihan (2.17 percent) and PPP (two percent).

A total of 155 party-list organizations are running in this year’s elections.

Under the law, party-lists that secure at least two percent of support from voters are guaranteed at least a seat in Congress.

The computation of seats is based on a previous ruling released by the Supreme Court.

According to OCTA, 15 other party-lists may secure seats based on the survey results.

These include Abamin, 1-Rider, Buhay, TGP, Gabriela, Batang Quiapo, Solid North, Angat, Tupad, ABP, ACT-Teachers, Ahon Mahirap, Lunas, Kabataan and Ang Tinig ng Seniors.
