Leading party-list organizations, including ACT-CIS, Duterte Youth, PPP, and 4PS, have taken the top spots in a recent survey.
2025 Party-List Elections: Insights into National Voter Sentiment
Last spring, from April 26 to May 1, a survey undertaken by Arkipelago Analytics gave a sneak peek into the party-list preferences of Filipino voters. Let's dive into the results.
ACT-CIS, Duterte Youth, PPP, and 4PS emerged as the clear frontrunners in the survey, showcasing the potential to clinch all three seats available after the seat allocation rounds. The remarkable support for these groups could be a manifestation of the nation's political inclination at the time.
In the second tier, parties such as Ako Bicol, Tingog, Uswag Ilonggo, 1-Rider, Malasakit@Bayanihan, Cibac, and Sagip demonstrated substantial support from the public, potentially earning them two seats each.
The 63 seats allocated among 48 party-list organizations revealed the vibrant range of political preferences and the fierce competition within the party-list system.
The survey's outcomes also hinted at a promising future for other party-list groups, who, while not guaranteeing seats, consistently gained strong backing from the electorate. Examples of these groups are Turismo, Anakalusugan, and OFW Partylist. Mid-tier groups like Buhay and Akay Ni Sol displayed competitive figures, while smaller organizations showed pockets of grassroots support.
The survey utilized a quantitative research approach with a structured questionnaire distributed to a nationally representative sample of 1400 registered voters, following a proportional stratified random sampling method to align with the demographic profile of the Philippine electorate.
The data yielded a margin of error of ±3 percent at a 97 percent confidence level. However, obtaining specific details about the Arkipelago Analytics Survey for the 2025 Philippine Party-List Election might necessitate additional reports or data sources.
In related news, recent surveys and partial election results suggest the following as the top party-list groups: Akbayan, Duterte Youth, Tingog, 4PS, ACT-CIS, Ako Bicol, Solid North Party, Uswag Ilonggo, Cibac, Trabaho, Senior Citizens, and Malasakit@Bayanihan [1][3]. A recent Social Weather Stations survey placed 4PS and ACT-CIS as the leading party-list groups, with 4PS at 7.67%, and ACT-CIS at 6.63% [4].
To secure a seat in the House of Representatives, a party-list group generally requires at least 2% of the total party-list votes. Based on the current standings, groups with over 1% of the votes, such as those mentioned above, could potentially secure a seat if they meet the threshold after the final tally.
For further insights into the Arkipelago Analytics Survey, more data and reports might be required.

In the context of the 2025 Party-List Elections, there has been a conspicuous display of support for parties like Duterte Youth, Tingog, and 4PS, as observed in both the Arkipelago Analytics Survey and the recent Social Weather Stations survey. Additionally, the Bisaya community may find representation in the election, considering the strong backing for parties advocating for distinct regional interests, such as Ako Bicol.
