Legislative elections were held on June 5, 1934 in the Philippines. Manuel L. Quezon and Sergio Osmeña were re-elected in the Philippine Senate and still arch-rivals since the Nacionalista Party broke up in 1922.

Electoral system[edit]

In a staggered election, the seats of the senators who were first disputed in 1922 were up for election. The Philippines is divided into 12 senatorial districts, of which all districts save for the 12th district, has one of its seats up. In the 12th district, any vacancy is filled via appointment of the Governor-General. The election itself is via first-past-the-post.

  1. ^ The Nacionalista Party won 11 seats: 8 seats under the Democratico faction and 3 seats under the Democrata Pro-Independencia faction. Following the election, the Nacionalista Party has a total of 24 seats: 16 seats under the Democratico faction and 8 seats under the Democrata Pro-Independencia faction.
  • ^ Of the two appointed senators from the Nacionalista Party, one was from the Democratico faction and one was from the Democrata Pro-Independencia faction.
  • Aftermath[edit]

    This was the last Senate election before 1946, since the Constitutional Convention, elected a month later, abolished the Senate by creating the unicameral National Assembly. The Senate would have been restored with amendments to the constitution that would have been applied in 1941, but World War II broke out and the elected senators would not have served until 1946.
