1957 Philippine presidential election

6th election of Philippine president From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1957 Philippine presidential and vice presidential elections were held on November 12, 1957. Incumbent President Carlos P. Garcia, who was a Vice President to Ramon Magsaysay, was elected for a full term as President of the Philippines. Garcia assumed the post following Magsaysay's death in a plane crash earlier that year. His running mate, Speaker Jose Laurel Jr., lost to Pampanga Representative Diosdado Macapagal. This was the first time in Philippine electoral history wherein a president was elected by a plurality rather than a majority, and in which the winning presidential and vice presidential candidates came from different parties.
