Even if the votes outside the Philippines are just 152,323 still this could affect the vice presidential race which is very close. Binay and Roxas are very close and it is very hard to determine the winner without counting all the votes the ABS-CBN said.
Here is the news courtesy from the ABS-CBN:
LONDON – Despite the low turnout, the Overseas Absentee Vote (OAV) could be a telling factor to determine the winner in the heated vice-presidential race between candidates Sen. Mar Roxas and Makati City Mayor Jejomar Binay.
The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) records show that there were about 152,323 absentee votes worldwide.
This represents only 26.7% out of more than 500,000 who registered for the month-long OAV period.
Based on the latest unofficial OAV count Thursday night, Liberal Party standard-bearer Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino enjoys a commanding lead with 39,811.
Running second to Aquino is Brother Eddie Villanueva of Bangon Pilipinas who has 11,002, and third is Sen. Manny Villar of Nacionalista Party with 9,852.
In the vice presidential race, Roxas is showing the way with 38,512, followed by Loren Legarda, 12,013 and running third only is Binay with 3,979.
For senators, on top is Frank Drilon with 41,036. He is followed by Miriam Defensor-Santiago, 40,233; Ralph Recto, 38,632; Bong Revilla, 38,330; Jinggoy Estrada, 34,178; Juan Ponce Enrile, 31,062; Ferdinand Marcos Jr., 30,982; Pia Cayetano, 30,187; Vicente Sotto III, 26,891; Sergio Osmena III, 24,927; and Teofisto Guingona III, 24,248.
Holding 12th spot is Joey De Venecia with 21,419.
The absentee vote in Europe did not even reach 20,000 out of almost 62,000 registered voters.
Both Aquino and Roxas are headed for a landslide win in practically all major cities in Europe.
They also enjoy a commanding lead in OAV-rich continents like Asia-Pacific and the Middle East and Africa.
