Governor
Incumbent Governor Berto Uy is running for re-election.[1][2] A candidate for governor by the name of Roberto Escobido Uy participated and entered in the race. On April 4, 2019, the Commission on Elections issued a resolution making Escobido Uy as a nuisance candidate because it bears the same name and same nickname "Berto" in order to confuse the voters.[3][4] On November 26, 2020, the Supreme Court of the Philippines upheld COMELEC's decision on disqualifying Escobido Uy.[5][6]
Vice governor
