Gabriela and Bayan Muna topped the latest partylist survey by Pulse Asia, but the polling firm notes that the number of Filipinos who remain unaware of the partylist system is still at a high of 60 percent.
Among the ten which garnered at least two-percent in the survey, only Gabriela and Bayan Muna would get the maximum three seats, if elections were held today.
But according to Pulse Asia:
Despite the fact that the election for party-list representatives has been taking place since 1998, almost six in ten registered voters (58%) still have not heard or read anything about the party-list system. Majorities in all geographic areas (51% to 61%) and practically every socio-economic class (58% to 60%) are not aware of the party-list system.
Ironically, the Pulse Asia added that:
It is only in the best-off Class ABC that a majority awareness level is recorded (55%).

In related news, media watchdog Center for Media Freedom and Responsibility has observed that media coverage on the partylist elections has remained miniscule, with presidential candidates hogging news coverage by the country’s biggest television networks.
