An Waray
Template:Short description Template:Use mdy Template:Infobox Philippine partylist group An Waray was a party-list in the Philippines, mainly based on the islands of Leyte, Samar and Biliran.[1]
In the 2004 elections for the House of Representatives An Waray got 268,164 votes (2.1079% of the nationwide vote)[2] and one seat (Florencio Noel). An Waray Party List is a democratic multi-sectoral party-list organization that envisions a just, progressive and peaceful Filipino society characterized by its principles katilingban (sense of community), kahimyang (peace) and kauswagan (progress) through the adoption of a community-based and peace oriented development agenda.[1]
An Waray had its registration cancelled by the Commission on Elections for letting its second nominee assume office in 2013 despite being entitled to only a seat, violating the Party-List System Act. The ruling was affirmed on August 14, 2023, by the commission en banc;[3] and was upheld by the Supreme Court in a decision promulgated on August 6, 2024.[4][5]
