Senatorial elections were held on June 6, 1922 in the Philippines under the Jones Law provisions. It was controversial when Senate President Manuel L. Quezon accused Sergio Osmeña of using public funds in campaigning which resulted to the Nacionalista Party to be split.
In a staggered election, the seats of the senators who were first place in 1916 were up for election. The Philippines is divided into 12 senatorial districts, of which all districts save for the 12th district, has one of its seats up. In the 12th district, any vacancy is filled via appointment of the Governor-General. The election itself is via first-past-the-post.
