Angelo Palmones former representative of AGHAM Partylist made a bid for the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to stop the proclamation of Ang Probinsyano on the grounds that it allegedly took undue advantage of naming themselves after Ang Probinsyano for name recall. Palmones argues that this gave the partylist, 1,210 minutes of indirect exposure from February 12 until April 5 (from the official start of the campaign season to the date when Palmones' petition was filed) and also took note the endorsement of two of the series' lead actors. The Section 9 of Comelec Resolution 10488 limits campaign advertisements for national candidates to 120 minutes for television which Palmones argues the partylist and ABS-CBN violated.{{cite news |last1=Ong |first1=Ghio |title=Comelec asked to stop proclamation of Ang Probinsyano party-list |url=https://www.philstar.com/headlines/2019/05/18/1918839/comelec-asked-stop-proclamation-ang-probinsyano-party-list |access-date=11 May 2020 |work=The Philippine Star|date=18 May 2019}}
