Notes

• A^ Initially, UNA (as Partido Navoteño) had nine seats after the 2010 election. Later on, Councilors Reynaldo Monroy and Ronaldo "Steve" Naval jumped to the party from being independents, increasing its seats to 11. Prior to this election, District I Coun. Bernardo Nazal died, leaving his seat vacant and decreasing UNA's seat total to 10.
• B^ Technically, District II Coun. Elsa Bautista is under the Nationalist People's Coalition, which contests this election in alliance with the Liberals. Bautista became a member of NPC in 2012.
• C^ Initially, there are three independent councilors (Monroy, Bautista and Naval) after the 2010 election, but they later jumped to major parties in 2012.
