Malacanang lies or poor reporting?

Filipinos in Japan are angry and upset over a GMA News report that allege Malacanang fronts garnered the top position over their staunch critics claiming they received a total of “537” votes out of 1829 votes cast. In an email from Butch forwarded by staunch Overseas Absentee Voting Advocate Yuko Takei stressing the obvious lies and misinformation which I quote:

Here is the posting. Better to spread this around to correct it and stop future attempts like this to mislead the public and condition their minds into thinking that they've won in the partylist vote. It also maligns the integrity of the Tokyo embassy and Osaka Consulate. They should act on this quick.

Butch

Who would not be upset seeing this kind of reporting just like the bogus party list truly makes it a bogus republic of mis-information? Where did they get their figures? The results sent via email says otherwise with APOI getting a measly 86 votes, so how did that add up (dagdag) to 537 or a difference of 451? Herewith are the results in Japan sent by Yuko Takei:
