Mayoral election

[edit]

Incumbent mayor Wes Gatchalian was elected to his first term as mayor in the 2022 Valenzuela local elections. Before being elected mayor, Gatchalian was the representative for Valenzuela's 1st congressional district from 2016.

Vice mayoral election

[edit]

Incumbent vice mayor Lorie Natividad-Borja was elected to her third term as vice mayor in the 2016 elections. Due to term limits, she is running for mayor.

Congressional election

[edit]

First district

[edit]

In 2022, Rex Gatchalian was elected as the first district representative after serving as the mayor since 2013. However, President Bongbong Marcos appointed him as the Secretary of Social Welfare and Development on January 31, 2023, making the seat vacant. From this time of appointment, Quezon's first district representative Mark Enverga was appointed as the legislative caretaker of the district.

Second district

[edit]

Incumbent representative Eric Martinez was first elected in 2016. Due to term limits, he is barred from running as the second district representative and he may choose to run for Mayor.
