The results reflect votes cast by overseas Filipinos in Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Oman from April 13 to May 12, 2025.
Leading the senatorial race across all GCC countries is re-electionist Senator Bong Go of the Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDPLBN), who secured 55,612 votes. Close behind is fellow PDPLBN candidate and Senator Bato dela Rosa, with 53,736 votes.
Among party-list groups, Duterte Youth emerged as the top choice among Filipino voters in the GCC, especially in Kuwait (40.99% of votes) and the UAE (31.87% of votes). The OFW Party-list consistently ranked second in most GCC countries.
