Those elected took their respective offices on June 30, 2019 for a three-year-long term. [1]

In addition, Aurelio’s brother, Dr. Emmanuel Umali, defeated former vice governor Edward Joson in the race for vice governor. [2] [3]

Electoral system

The governor and vice governor is elected via the plurality voting system province-wide.The members are elected via plurality-at-large voting: the province is divided into four districts, the first and fourth districts sending three members each, while the second and third districts sending two members each to the provincial board; the number of candidates the electorate votes for and the number of winning candidates depends on the number of members their district sends.
