The Commission on Elections (Comelec) is to proclaim Gabriela partylist as the newest member of the House of Representatives after taking the 64th seat in the May 2025 elections.

In a radio interview, Comelec chairman George Garcia said Sarah Elago of Gabriela will be proclaimed as the 64th party-list representative in the 20th Congress on Wednesday.

"We just want to end the speculations. Anyway, it's just a matter of formality on Wednesday, when hopefully, she will be officially proclaimed," said Garcia.

Earlier, the Comelec said it will be proclaiming one additional winning party-list representative during the elections.

The poll body said the 63 seats allocated during the May 2025 elections is short of the required 20 percent party-list composition of the House of Representatives.

Gabriela placed 55th in the May 2025 party-list race after getting 256,811 votes. DMS
