THRILL FIGHT: SELG Election Ends in Coin Toss as Candidates Tie

The Student Elementary Learners Government (SELG) election just got intense! 🤯 The showdown between Team ISOG (Igmat sa Serbisyo, Organisado ug Ganado) and Team GAHI (Gobyernong Aktibo, Han-ay ang Inisyatibo) ended in a nail‑biter — with one position decided by a coin toss!

The election was held today, February 9, 2026, at the Diwan Elementary School Library. After the polls closed, the vote counting began, and the suspense had everyone on edge. 😅

Throughout the tally, the candidates from both teams remained neck‑and‑neck. When the final votes were counted, the results were shocking: most positions were separated by very slim margins, and one race — the Secretary position — resulted in an exact tie. 🤑

For the coveted SELG Presidency, Stefanny Nicolle L. Enderez of Team GAHI secured the win by a razor-thin margin over her opponent, Julie E. Oberio of Team ISOG. Meanwhile, the Vice Presidency was clinched by Jessemae S. Marabulas of Team GAHI, who won by just two votes against Team ISOG’s Tifanny Nicole Recentes.

With tensions rising over the tied Secretary race, the election committee decided to resolve the deadlock through a coin toss 🤷‍♀️. Heads or tails — only luck would decide. The coin flipped into the air… and landed on TAILS! 🎉 Leniegyn L. Julian of Team ISOG was declared the Secretary, while Joan P. Andag of Team GAHI accepted the outcome graciously and congratulated her opponent.

In the Treasurer race, Joivy E. Elcamel of Team ISOG won by just two votes over Mike Xhian Chael Duran of Team GAHI. For Auditor, Machell Egad dominated the competition, followed by fellow party member Angelie Saldariega, who secured the Public Information Officer position. Meanwhile, Mc Lawrence P. Ronolo of Team ISOG displayed strong support to surpass Shane Jiroh Lumucso of Team GAHI.

What a wild election! 🎊 Stay tuned for more updates about the newly elected SELG leaders!
