A Supreme Court case argued for the holding of a special election in the Iloilo's 2nd congressional district as there were several abstentions in Guimaras for the said position.

The Supreme Court dismissed the case, saying "those who did not vote for the position of congressman, merely abstained from voting for the said position".
