Antique local candidates told to beat SOCE filing deadline
As of June 10, 2025, only 976 out of over 41,000 candidates nationwide have filed their Statements of Contributions and Expenditures (SOCE) for the May 12 midterm elections, with the deadline set for June 11.
This includes a small number of national candidates: eight senatorial hopefuls, 16 party-list organizations, and four political groups.
At the local level, 948 out of 41,217 candidates have submitted their SOCEs.
The law mandates SOCE filing within 30 days after elections, making June 11 the final day for submission.
Failure to submit SOCEs for the first time will result in a fine, with repeated non-compliance potentially leading to disqualification from elective and appointive positions.
In Antique, re-elected Rep. Antonio Agapito Legarda and Governor-elect Paolo Javier have filed their SOCEs, while Governor Rhodora Cadiao and Vice Governor-elect Genevive Lim-Reyes have yet to do so.
