Sarangani's at-large congressional district is the sole congressional district of the Philippines in the province of Sarangani. It was created ahead of the 1995 Philippine House of Representatives elections following the separation of the third district from South Cotabato in 1992.[3] The province has been electing a single representative provincewide at-large to the House of Representatives from the 10th Congress onwards.[4] It is currently represented in the 19th Congress by Steve Solon of the Lakas–CMD and People's Champ Movement (PCM).[5][6]
