[dropcap]E[/dropcap]arly today, the COMELEC released the FINAL and OFFICIAL RESULTS of the Gensan 2016 Local Elections which is unprecedented because it usually took days and even weeks to come up with the List of Official Winners in the past.  The list revealed name of winners who belong mostly to the People’s Champ Movement and thus relegating the Achievement with Integrity Movement Party as MINORITY PARTY for the second time.

Re-electionists Mayor Ronnel C. Rivera, Vice Mayor Shirlyn B. Nograles (both of PCM) were eventually declared as winners by the Board of Canvassers this afternoon and thus cementing their hold on the Gensan City Hall once more.

Congressman Pedro B. Acharon, Jr. (AIM), now on his 3rd and final term as Representative of the First District of South Cotabato is supposed to follow suit in Koronadal City, at the Provincial Board of Canvassers.

For the City Council, except for three winners who are affiliated with AIM, the rest are PCM candidates. It is however, AIM candidates Beth Bagonoc and Dr. Odjock Acharon, who took the Top 1 and Top 4 positions while Lulu Casabuena came in 10th. Rounding out the TOP 5 are former City Mayor and 2nd termer Lita Nuñez and first timer Bobby Pacquiao, former world champion and Pacman’s brother, who is at an impressive #2.

Other first-timers are Dominador Lagare, Jr (#5), Jose Yumang (#8) and Van-van Congson (#9).

To all of them, our sincrest congratulations!
