  ## Marinduque
  
  Incumbent Carmencita Reyes switched to the Liberal Party from Lakas-Kampi-CMD and is running for the provincial governorship; her son Edmundo is her party's nominee for the district's seat.
  
  The result of the election is under protest in the House of Representatives Electoral Tribunal (HRET). The HRET dismissed Reyes' petition, and even padded Velasco's winning margin by an additional 39 votes. The tribunal resolved that there were no election irregularities.
