Senate transmits last few COCs, ER to House: Senate personnel turn over to the House of Representatives in Quezon City on Wednesday, May 25, 2022, several ballot boxes supposedly containing certificates of canvass (COCs) and election returns (ERs) for President and Vice President. The election documents, which came from the province of Basilan, as well as from the overseas absentee voting held in Iran, Myanmar, Brazil, Bangladesh, and Morocco would be opened and canvassed by members of the two chambers of Congress, currently sitting as the National Board of Canvassers. A total of 173 COCs are expected to be canvassed before Congress proclaims the next president and vice president of the Philippines later today. (Henzberg Austria/Senate PRIB)
