The final tally showed Laurel winning by over 800,000 votes--roughly the same margin by which it showed Aquino defeating Marcos. However, according to the COMELEC tally, Tolentino won over Laurel with a margin of around one million votes. This allegedly fraudulent outcome would eventually lead to the People Power Revolution which ousted Marcos and installed Aquino as president.

Respected by many Filipinos not only for his extemporaneous amendments to major measures and enlightened brand of politics, Tolentino was also known as a scholar, writer, diplomat, and distinguished author of law books.

Notes
- ^ 1973 Constitution of the Philippines originally did not provide for the position of Vice President. Tolentino proposed an amendment adopted in 1984, which provided for the position of vice-president to be filled in 1987. Tolentino was able to run for the position earlier than scheduled because President Marcos submitted a conditional resignation to be able to call for snap elections in 1986.
