On the other hand, another incumbent George Elias is now on his last term as the vice mayor of the city. Ineligible for reelection, Elias will no longer run for any position.

The incumbent mayor Lani Cayetano is running again for mayoralty office under the Nacionalista Party (NP) with his running mate Ricardo Cruz, Jr. Cayetano, a former congresswoman of Taguig and Pateros district, was said to be the first youngest female official to hold office while Cruz is the Barangay Chairman of Lower Bicutan.[1]
