The incumbent mayor is Along Malapitan, who is serving his first term as mayor after being elected in 2022 with 56.13% of the vote. Malapitan is eligible for a second term.[1]
Antonio Trillanes, a former senator and candidate for the Senate in 2022, expressed his interest in challenging Malapitan for the mayoralty in January 2024, signaling a 95% likelihood of running for the office in an interview with ANC.[2] [3] [4] Trillanes later confirmed his bid for the office as a member of Aksyon Demokratiko on July 15, when he formally joined the party.[5]
The incumbent vice mayor is Karina Teh-Limsico, who is serving her first term after being elected in 2022 with 62.28% of the vote. Teh-Limsico is eligible for a second term. She will face a rematch from former councilor PJ Malonzo, whom she defeated in the 2022 vice mayoral race.
The Caloocan City Council is composed of 20 members, 18 of which are elected through plurality block voting to serve three-year terms. The councilors represent the city's three councilor districts, which are coextensive with the congressional districts, with six members being elected per district.

Former representative and 2022 mayoral candidate Edgar Erice was expected to challenge Cajayon-Uy for the seat for the fourth time, with him winning the two previous contests (2013 and 2016). However, on November 22, 2024, he was disqualified by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) Second Division for "propagating false information across multiple platforms" in regards to his accusations against Comelec and Miru Systems of election rigging, though the decision was not yet final as he will file a motion for reconsideration.[10] [11] If his disqualification was deemed final, this would leave Cajayon-Uy running unopposed for the seat.
