At the last of voter's registration last October 2012, the city has accumulated a total of 138,744 registered voters. [1] Registered voters of the city no longer vote for provincial candidates such as the Governor and Vice Governor unlike its nearby towns. In 2010, through Republic Act 9724, Iligan City separated from the First District of Lanao del Norte.

The Legislative districts of Lanao del Norte are the representations of the province of Lanao del Norte in the various national legislatures of the Philippines. The province is currently represented in the lower house of the Congress of the Philippines through its first and second congressional districts.

Lawrence Lluch Cruz is the incumbent on his third consecutive term. Thus, he is prohibited to run due to term limits. Instead, Cruz's tandem and incumbent vice-mayor Henry Dy was challenged by the two other popular candidates, retired Colonel Celso Regencia and former mayor Franklin Quijano .

A term limit is a legal restriction that limits the number of terms an officeholder may serve in a particular elected office. When term limits are found in presidential and semi-presidential systems they act as a method of curbing the potential for monopoly, where a leader effectively becomes "president for life". This is intended to protect a democracy from becoming a de facto dictatorship. Sometimes, there is an absolute or lifetime limit on the number of terms an officeholder may serve; sometimes, the restrictions are merely on the number of consecutive terms he or she may serve.

On May 14, 2013, Celso Regencia and Ruderic Marzo were proclaimed newly elected city mayor and vice-mayor of the city by the Board of Canvassers. [2]
