Who receives the certified election returns for the President and Vice-President?
After the votes are cast and certified by the local boards of canvassers, they must be transmitted to the legislature. Specifically, these returns are sent to the Congress of the Philippines. They must be directed to the President of the Senate for official processing. This process is a crucial step in determining the winner of the national elections. Article VII Section 4 1987 Philippine Constitution “The returns of every election for President and Vice-President, duly certified by the board of canvassers of each province or city, shall be transmitted to the Congress, directed to the President of the Senate.” 03-Feb-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
