Governor

Incumbent Governor Glenda Bongao of the Liberal Party ran for vice mayor of Tabaco. Bongao became governor on April 28, 2025, after Edcel Greco Lagman was dismissed for accepting money from illegal gambling. [1]

Edcel Greco Lagman initially ran for a full term as governor under the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas, but withdrew on December 5, 2024, and endorsed former Albay governor Noel Rosal (Partido Demokratiko Pilipino). [7] [8]
