City and municipal elections

[edit]

Incumbent Mayor Bernardo Paredes is term-limited and is no longer running for any position due to age and health. His coalition nominated his daughter, incumbent city Liga ng mga Barangay president and ex-officio city councilor Apple Paredes. She will be opposed by incumbent vice mayor Denver Chua, incidentally her former brother-in-law.

Incumbent Vice Mayor Denver Chua is running for mayor, hence the position will be an open one. His coalition nominated incumbent city councilor Raleigh Rusit, who will be opposed by another incumbent councilor, former vice mayor Percilito "Penchie" Consigo, who is coveting his old post.

The Paredes-Consigo tandem and their team are notably supported by local supporters of the Lacson-Sotto campaign and that of Robredo-Pangilinan, as well as congressional candidate Paul Abaya.

Incumbent Mayor Lani Mercado-Revilla is running for congresswoman, switching places with her brother-in-law, incumbent congressman Strike Revilla. Both are currently in their second terms.

Incumbent Vice Mayor Karen Sarino-Evaristo is term-limited and is running for Bacoor West district councilor.

Incumbent Mayor Emmanuel "Manny" Maliksi is term-limited. He was initially floated to be the candidate of the Liberal Party-led Team One Imus (since dissolved) for the congressional post of the city's lone district, but gave way to Adrian Advincula of Team AJAA in the regular district congressional race following their unification talks brokered by Senator Panfilo Lacson. Maliksi will instead be running as the first nominee of Buklod Filipino Party-List. As a result, both groups will be fielding term-limited district Representative Alex Advincula as their common mayoralty candidate.

Advincula will be opposed by Anthony Astillero, his perennial opponent since their past congressional matches.

Incumbent Vice Mayor Arnel "Ony" Cantimbuhan is on his second term and was initially floated to be Team One Imus' mayoralty bet, but with the unification of Team One Imus and Team AJAA, he had to ditch the plan and will instead seek to reclaim his old post of provincial board member representing the province's third district. Both groups have endorsed former municipal mayor and vice mayor Homer "Saki" Saquilayan as their common vice mayoralty candidate.

Incumbent vice mayor Rex Mangubat will be challenged by his predecessor, incumbent senior provincial board member Valeriano Encabo. They used to be partymates under the National Unity Party until recently.
