Background.
Retired police general Benjamin Magalong won the mayoralty race in 2019, and is seeking re-election for a second term in office. Former mayor Mauricio Domogan, who ran for representative and lost to incumbent representative Mark Go, is seeking a political comeback and is running again for mayor.
During the onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic, Magalong's government was highly praised for its efforts to contain the virus, and was even cited as a model city by the national government. Cities and municipalities around the country invited Magalong where he would share his government's best practices and case analysis approach towards combating the pandemic. In July 2020, President Duterte appointed Magalong as the country's contract tracing czar, tasked with training and intensifying the skillset of contact tracers as well as improve contract tracing systems in the county.
Electoral System.
Local elections are held every three years, on the second Monday of May coinciding with the elections for the national positions. An individual may only be elected to an office for a maximum of three consecutive terms.
Mayoral and Vice Mayoral Elections.
The first-past-the-post voting system is used to determine the mayor wherein the candidate with the most votes, whether or not one has a majority, wins the mayoralty.
The vice mayoral election is held separately but does observe the same rules. Voters are given the option to vote for candidates from different parties.
House of Representatives Elections.
The city is a lone district and elects a representative through the first-past-the-post voting system wherein the candidate with the most votes, whether or not one has a majority, wins the seat.

Tickets.
As the mayor, vice mayor and the members of the city council are elected on the same ballot, mayoral candidates may present or endorse a slate of city council candidates. These slates usually run with their respective mayoral and vice mayoral candidates along with the other members of their slate. A group of candidates independent of any mayoral or vice mayoral candidate may also form a slate consisting of themselves. ;templatestyles src="Col-begin/styles.css"/ ;
