Will there be a Sixth District of Iloilo in the near future?
For the longest time, it has been decades since the province of Iloilo added a new legislative district. Times have changed now and populations ever increasing. Based on the population projections for Philippine municipalities, Iloilo is indeed ripe for the addition on another district, the 6th district of Iloilo.
Based on the projection for the year 2022, the presidential election year, the map below shows how Iloilo province will be rearranged to accommodate a new district while satisfying the required 250,000 district population.
If this will be realized this move, adding another district to Iloilo, will create more representation for the province of Iloilo in the congress.
