An Waray is a party-list in the Philippines, mainly based on the islands of Leyte, Samar and Biliran.[1]
In the 2004 elections for the House of Representatives An Waray got 268,164 votes (2.1079% of the nationwide vote)[2] and one seat (Florencio Noel). An Waray Party List is a democratic multi-sectoral party-list organization that envisions a just, progressive and peaceful Filipino society characterized by its principles katilingban (sense of community), kahimyang (peace) and kauswagan (progress) through the adoption of a community-based and peace oriented development agenda.[1] On August 14, 2023, the Philippine Commission on Elections or COMELEC revoked the party-list's registration due to a controversy of An Waray seating its 2nd nominee in 2013 without being proclaimed by the COMELEC.[3]

Notes
- ↑ An Waray was initially entitled to two seats following the 2013 election. However after a re-computation ordered by the Supreme Court it was determined that An Waray only secured one seat.[4] Victoria Noel assumed position as An Waray's second representative without a proclamation from the Commission on Election.[5][6] She was the third nominee, with second nominee Philip Jude Acidre resigning from the role.[7]
