A legislator from the Bicol region on Tuesday filed a bill setting the next barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections on October 26, 2026, and then every three years thereafter.
The previous BSKE was held last October 2023, which means that the incumbent officials will serve for two years only if the next poll is held in 2025, according to the lawmaker. In compliance with the constitutional mandate on three-year terms for BSKE winners, this bill complies with the election date provided in RA 11462 by moving the balloting to Oct. 26, 2026, from Dec. 1, 2025, according to his proposal.
