The recently formed "Solid North" party-list has emerged as a leader among “Top Choice Party-lists” for the upcoming 2025 Midterm Elections.
In a latest survey conducted by "Tangere" from October 1-4, 2024, data reveals that the Solid North Party-list is advancing and leading among voter support from a pool of 44 party-lists with a strong chance of securing representation in the House of Representatives.
According to the Tangere survey, the Solid North Party-list is projected to win a seat in the House, marking a significant milestone compared to veteran party-list groups such as ACT-CIS, 4Ps, and Ako Bicol. Also competing for a first seat are Malasakit@Bayanihan, Agri Party-list, and FPJ Panday Bayanihan.
The Tangere survey included a sample size of 2,400 participants using a “mobile-based respondent application” and a “stratified random sampling method”.
According to Solid North chairman and president of the League of Municipalities of the Philippines, La Paz, Abra Mayor JB Bernos Ching Bernos, this survey result is a great honor and serves as an early "de facto mandate". If given the chance to gain a legislative seat, he said, they will dedicate 100% of their efforts to public service.
The Solid North Party-list represents an estimated 15 provinces in northern Luzon, specifically in Regions 1, 2, the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR), and three additional provinces, embodying the identity of "Timpuyog ti Amianan" or "Unity in the North."
The primary goal of Solid North is to ensure that development projects in the northern region are felt and realized.
Tangere Chief Executive Officer Martin Peñaflor stated that the survey results indicate the strong interest of voters in party-list groups focused on the welfare of underserved communities, with emphasis on the needs of farmers and the agricultural community.
