It seems like they’re being delisted because they’re not that popular. Doesn’t that seem unfair?

“The Commission on Elections (COMELEC) has delisted 39 party-list organizations for their failure to obtain at least 2% of the votes in the 2010 and 2013 election exercises, and also for failure to obtain a seat in the second round of seat allocation for the party-list system in the 2010 and 2013 polls,” reports Jet Villa on InterAksyon.com.
