This Voter Quiz Matches You With Senate Bets Based on Your Views

(SPOT.ph) Still undecided about the midterm elections this May 12? Perhaps you don’t have the time (or patience) to dig through the platforms of all 66 senatorial bets? We’ve got just the website for you.

2025.nosibalasi.org is a quiz-style website where you answer a series of questions on key political and social issues, then it generates a ranked list of senatorial candidates whose views align with yours the most.

The site is simple enough to use: just answer 13 questions by choosing whether you’re Pabor (in favor), Di Pabor (against), or Wala (no answer).

The questions cover key national issues like the death penalty, same-sex civil unions, divorce, as well as hot topics on the West Philippine Sea, cooperation with the International Criminal Court (ICC), and even the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte.

How it works

Each candidate’s answers are based on public records, interviews, and verified sources. A +1 point is awarded every time a candidate matches your stance, and the more you agree, the higher they’ll show up in your results. Ties are broken alphabetically.  

You can also click on each candidate after getting your results to see exactly where you agreed or disagreed on specific issues. Each stance also comes with a clickable source, so you can read up on the full context or verify the information yourself (as you should).

Nosibalasi is a project by the Philippine Institute for Student Democracy (PISD), a non-profit, non-partisan group that advocates for democratic rights in education. It’s powered by student volunteers from various universities who describe themselves as “running on energy drinks and instant ramen.” The goal is to help voters—especially the undecided—make more informed decisions based on values rather than name recall or popularity. 

Vote wisely!
