DUMAGUETE CITY, Philippines – At 1:30 pm on Tuesday, May 14, the City Board of Canvassers proclaimed Manuel Chiquiting Sagarbarria as mayor of Dumaguete.

Sagarbarria is from the Nationalist People’s Coalition (NPC). Former rival but current running mate, Woodrow Maquiling Sr, and 5 city councilors from the NPC were officially proclaimed as well.

Re-electionist Sagarbarria was the leading candidate opposed by LP candidate Alan Gel Cordova.

Sagarbarria won with 35,285 votes to Cordova’s 19,745.

At the proclamation, Sagarbarria said, “I am happy and honored that the City of Gentle People gave me another 36 months to serve them.” 

He won in all 30 barangays. Dumaguete City has a total of 73,270 registered voters.

The official turnout in Dumaguete based on the 90 precincts canvassed is 79.43%, which is higher than previous elections.
