Gubernatorial elections were held in the Philippines on May 14, 2007. All provinces elected their provincial governors for three-year terms that will begin on June 30, 2007. Governors that are currently serving their third consecutive terms are prohibited from running as governors (they may run in any other position).

Contents

Highly urbanized cities and independent component cities such as Zamboanga City, Angeles City and Cebu City, and including Metro Manila and the municipality of Pateros are outside the jurisdiction of any province and thus won't elect for governors of their mother provinces (Pampanga and Cebu, for Angeles and Cebu City). They, along with Metro Manila would elect mayors instead.
