Elected in the 2023 barangay & SK elections (DILG directory). Matched by last name only within Ilocos Sur; a common surname is very likely to include unrelated families. The list above shows only the punong barangay and SK chairs.

A surname bloc is officials elected in one province who carry the same surname as last or middle name; barangay & SK officials with the same last name are listed separately. Shared names may not mean kinship, and a bloc is not evidence of wrongdoing. Definition and data:BetterGov.ph Dynasties

Campaign promises

Promises are added with the date, source, and responsible office. They are only marked “Completed” when there is documentary evidence, never based on campaign statements alone.

COA audits of the LGU during their term

Commission on Audit results for City of Candon in years Eric Singson was mayor for the whole calendar year. COA audits the local government unit, not the official.

  • 2024
    Qualified opinion
    15 of 34 prior COA recommendations fully implemented (44.1%), 19 not implemented

COA says an audit opinion is not a rating, score or grade and should not be ranked. It covers whether the financial statements are fairly presented — it is not a finding of wrongdoing. Sources & method →

Each achievement is classified as an official award, a public recognition, an independently verified accomplishment, a self-reported achievement, or a campaign claim. Campaign materials are never treated as independent evidence.
