BH won a single seat in the 2025 election, but the proclamation was put on hold by the COMELEC pending the resolution of a disqualification case.[9] However the petition was dismissed on May 22, due to the complainant's failure to comply with the mandatory requirements in filing petitions. It was eventually proclaimed as the winner on June 6, 2025.[10][11]
