In the 2019 midterm election, Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP), the electoral coalition backed by the Duterte administration, won nine of twelve seats, with three seats going to other parties and independents, and the primary opposition coalition, the Liberal Party-backed Otso Diretso, failing to win any seats.[1] This led to the senators not affiliated with the Liberals to reelect Tito Sotto to the Senate presidency in 2019.[2]

In 2021, Senator Panfilo Lacson said that a plot to oust Sotto from the Senate Presidency allegedly "fizzled out" as the plotters failed to muster 13 votes to oust him.[3]

Electoral system

The Philippines has a 24-member Senate elected at-large. Every three years since 1995, 12 seats are disputed. For 2022, the seats disputed in 2016 will be contested. Each voter has 12 votes, of which one can vote one to twelve candidates, or a multiple non-transferable vote; the twelve candidates with the most votes are elected.

Senators are limited to serving two consecutive terms, although they are eligible for a third (and succeeding) non-consecutive term.[4] Only half of the seats are up in every senatorial election. The winning senators will succeed those elected in 2016, and will join those elected in 2019 to form the 19th Congress.

Each party or coalition endorses a slate of candidates, typically not exceeding a 12-person ticket.[5] A party may also choose to invite "guest candidates" to complete its slate. The party may even include, with the candidates' consent, independent candidates and candidates from other parties as the party's guest candidates. Parties also may form coalitions to endorse a multi-party slate of candidates.

Winning candidates are proclaimed by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC), sitting as the National Board of Canvassers (NBOC). The NBOC usually proclaims senators-elect by batches, if that candidate can no longer fall to worse than twelfth place in the tally. Post-proclamation disputes are handled by the Senate Electoral Tribunal, a body composed of six senators and three justices from the Supreme Court.

Term-limited and retiring incumbents

Term limited incumbents

The following are ineligible from running since they are on their second consecutive six-year term:[6]

  1. Franklin Drilon (Liberal), retiring
    In 2020, Drilon personally counted himself out in running for president in 2022.[7] A year later, he said that he was planning to retire from politics after his term ends if the succeeding administration would not have a role for him.[8]
  2. Ralph Recto (Nacionalista), running for representative from Batangas's 6th district
    In 2021, Recto says that he mulls swapping positions with his wife, representative from Batangas Vilma Santos.[9] Recto did file his candidacy to run for congressman from Batangas's 6th district, the seat Santos decided not to seek reelection for.[10]
  3. Tito Sotto (NPC), running for vice president of the Philippines
    In July 2020, Sotto said that retirement would be his first option in 2022, as opposed to running for a higher position.[11] A year later, he said that he would be open to running for vice president as Senator Panfilo Lacson's running mate.[12] A month after that announcement, Lacson announced that he would run for president, with Sotto as his running mate.[13]

Retiring incumbents

The following senators' terms are ending in 2022. They were eligible to run again, but targeted other positions:

  1. Panfilo Lacson (Reporma), running for president of the Philippines
    Lacson said in mid-2019 he would run for president if he has "a clear chance of winning."[14] Two years later, it was announced that he would run for president instead of seeking re-election in the Senate, with an official announcement set on August 5.[15][13] Days later, Lacson was sworn in as the new chairman of Partido para sa Demokratikong Reporma.[16]
  2. Manny Pacquiao (PROMDI), running for president of the Philippines
    On September 19, Pacquiao at first officially accepted the nomination of PDP–Laban's Pimentel faction for president in the upcoming 2022 election.[17] On October 1, Pacquiao filed his candidacy under PROMDI of the late Lito Osmeña, while there were leadership issues with PDP–Laban.[18]
  3. Francis Pangilinan (Liberal), running for vice president of the Philippines
    In June 2021, Pangilinan announced that he would initially seek reelection in 2022.[19] In October, he was selected to be Leni Robredo's running mate.[20]

Running for another position mid-term

Ronald dela Rosa (PDP–Laban) originally filed to run for president of the Philippines, as Bong Go's presidential running mate.[21] Dela Rosa withdrew later on.[22] Bong Go then ran for president, switching from PDP–Laban to Pederalismo ng Dugong Dakilang Samahan (PDDS).[23] Go himself withdrew on November 30.[24]

Coalitions

As this Senate election is concurrently held with a presidential election, some presidential candidates presented senatorial slates. These slates typically have up to 12 names to round up the twelve seats up for election.

With the first presentation of slates of presidential candidates Panfilo Lacson, Manny Pacquiao and Leni Robredo, most of these notably shared names. Jejomar Binay, Francis Escudero, Richard J. Gordon, Joel Villanueva, and Juan Miguel Zubiri were the common names in the three slates that were presented, with Loren Legarda present in two.[25]

1Sambayan slate

After releasing its choices of presidential and vice presidential candidates on June 12, 2021, Independence Day, Howard Calleja, one of the convenors of the opposition group 1Sambayan (Isambayan) said that former Bayan Muna representative Neri Colmenares was one of the group's choices to have their endorsement.[26]

After the announcement of Leni Robredo's initial 11-person slate, 1Sambayan said it would also announce who they would support soon, while maintaining that they supported unconditionally support the Robredo–Francis Pangilinan ticket for president and vice president.[27] Antonio Trillanes accused Makabayan candidate Neri Colmenares of supporting Isko Moreno instead of backing 1Sambayan's candidate Leni Robredo. Makabayan denied endorsing Moreno, pointing out they had yet to make a decision on the matter.[28]

Aksyon's Moreno–Ong slate

Aksyon Demokratiko was in talks with Nationalist People's Coalition, United Nationalist Alliance, and Partido para sa Demokratikong Reporma for an alliance.[29] There have also been discussions between Aksyon president Isko Moreno and PDP-Laban's Manny Pacquiao, as well as between Moreno and the Liberal Party's Leni Robredo.[30] On September 27, 2021, Aksyon announced two candidates, Samira Gutoc, who ran and lost in 2019 with the Liberals, and Carl Balita, for election.[31] Former vice president and senator Noli de Castro filed to run for senator with Aksyon,[32] but withdrew less than a week later.[33] Jopet Sison, of Ipaglaban Mo! fame, replaced him.[34]

LP's Robredo–Pangilinan slate

The Liberal Party (LP) was in talks of alliance-building with Panfilo Lacson, Joel Villanueva, Nancy Binay, and Isko Moreno.[35] Minority Leader and LP Vice-chairman Franklin Drilon stated that if Vice President Leni Robredo chose not to run for the presidency, the party would be open to coalesce under Manny Pacquiao.[36] In August 2021, the party released the names of its initial slate for the Senate consisting of three incumbents, one former senator, and one former candidate.[37] In September 2021, Robredo met separately with Moreno and Pacquiao.[30] The Liberal Party announced its initial slate on September 28, 2021.[38]

On October 15, Robredo announced an 11-person slate, which included former rivals such as Vice President Jejomar Binay, and Francis Escudero, whom she beat for vice president in 2016. The 12th slot was being negotiated between Makabayan's Neri Colmenares and labor leader Sonny Matula.[39] Colmenares said that it's Robredo's prerogative as the presidential candidate to choose her Senate slate.[40] Colmenares later said that it was former senator Antonio Trillanes who was behind his exclusion from the line-up.[41] Robredo announced that Sonny Matula was the 12th person in her Senate slate on October 22.[42]

MP3's Pacquiao–Atienza ticket

PDP–Laban acting president Manny Pacquiao has been in separate talks with Aksyon Demokratiko's Isko Moreno and the Liberal Party's Leni Robredo.[30] On September 19, 2021, Pacquiao formed an alliance with PROMDI and the People's Champ Movement (PCM).[43]

On October 15, Pacquiao presented his senatorial slate that included candidates running for reelection, progressive leaders, and former senators.[44] Pacquiao by that time only had eight candidates on his slate, as he said there were other people who wanted to be guest candidates.[45]

PDDS and PDP–Laban (Cusi faction)

Administration party PDP–Laban released its initial list of preferred senatorial candidates in July 2021. Most of these have been current members of the Cabinet, former senators seeking a return to the Senate, or personalities identified with President Rodrigo Duterte.[46] During the national convention by the Alfonso Cusi faction, the party nominated mostly Cabinet members and allied lower House representatives in its initial slate.[47]

PLM's De Guzman–Bello slate

Leody de Guzman of Partido Lakas ng Masa (PLM) unveiled a Senate slate composed of nine people including two incumbents. The three people running under De Guzman's party PLM are labor leader Luke Espiritu of Bukluran ng Manggagawang Pilipino (BMP) and environmentalists Roy Cabonegro and David D'angelo.[48]

Reporma and NPC's Lacson–Sotto ticket

As Senate President Tito Sotto announced his and Panfilo Lacson's candidacies for vice president and president, respectively in July 2021, they also presented their initial list of possible senatorial candidates. These include mostly incumbents and former senators.[49] In July 2021, an alliance between the Nationalist People's Coalition (NPC), United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) and Partido para sa Demokratikong Reporma has been the works with the possibility of the inclusion of Aksyon Demokratiko.[29] A cooperation agreement has yet to be signed with the National Unity Party (NUP).[50]

On October 14, Lacson hinted at a "surprise" senatorial candidate on their camp, while having already revealed 10 names, that includes incumbents.[51] A day later, Lacson presented a 14-person slate (two more than the 12 open seats), which includes three from Lacson's Reporma, and six from Sotto's NPC.[52]

Uniteam's Marcos–Duterte slate

Partido Federal ng Pilipinas, one of the constituent parties of the Uniteam alliance, announced that former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque of the People's Reform Party is a member of their senatorial slate.[53]
