Local elections are scheduled to be held in Marikina on May 12, 2025, as part of the 2025 Philippine general election. The electorate will elect a mayor, a vice mayor, sixteen members of the Marikina City Council, and two district representatives to the House of Representatives of the Philippines. The officials elected will assume their respective offices on June 30, 2025, for a three-year-long term.
In the 2022 elections, Marcelino Teodoro and Marion Andres were elected to the mayoralty and vice mayoralty respectively.[1] Their coalition, Team MarCy, attained outright control of the city council, winning 14 of the 16 elective seats in the legislature.[2]
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.
Incumbent Mayor Marcelino Teodoro and his allies have been affiliated with the United Nationalist Alliance since 2022, following his ouster from the Nationalist People's Coalition after a verbal row with former mayor and former congressman Bayani Fernando over the aftermath of Typhoon Ulysses two years prior.[3] Following the landslide victory of his Team MarCy coalition in 2022, Teodoro's administration has partnered with Senator Koko Pimentel and his wife, diplomat Kathryna Yu-Pimentel, in implementing projects in the city, including a health caravan in April 2024.[4]
The incumbent mayor is Marcelino Teodoro, who has served since 2016 and was reelected in 2022 with 82.08% of the vote. Teodoro is term-limited and is barred from seeking reelection. This will be the first election since 2010 in which an incumbent mayor is ineligible for reelection.
Early in the race, Representative Stella Quimbo expressed her interest in running for mayor to succeed Teodoro.[5] [6] Despite facing scrutiny with her support of the Maharlika Wealth Fund and defense of Vice President Sara Duterte's use of confidential funds during the 19th Congress, Quimbo stated that she will remain with the Liberal Party for the 2025 election.[7] Her retention in the party was affirmed by party officials amid calls to sanction Quimbo as a party member, citing its recognition of the "freedom of expression and dissent".[8] Quimbo's husband, Miro, confirmed her bid for the mayoralty on July 22, 2024, prior to the 2024 State of the Nation Address.
Media outlets, including the Philippine Daily Inquirer and the Manila Bulletin, have speculated that Representative Marjorie Ann Teodoro will run for mayor and head the administration ticket in 2025.
The incumbent vice mayor is Marion Andres, who has served since 2019 and was reelected in 2022 with 69.94% of the vote. Andres is eligible for reelection to a third consecutive term.
The city council is composed of 18 members, 16 of which are elected through plurality block voting to serve three-year terms. The councilors represent the city's two councilor districts, which are coextensive with the congressional districts, with eight members being elected per district.
Coinciding with the local elections, two representatives from the city's two congressional districts will be elected to represent their respective districts in the House of Representatives in the 20th Congress. In the 2022 elections, Marjorie Ann Teodoro and Stella Quimbo were elected to represent the first and second districts respectively. Both representatives are in the majority bloc in the 19th Congress.
