[1] That "still to be determined" candidate turned out to be outgoing 2nd District Representative Mar-Len Abigail "Abby" Binay-Campos, who was replacing Jejomar Binay, Jr. Binay was disqualified for running by the Ombudsman due to the overpriced Makati City Hall II Parking building anomaly. [2]
Aside from Peña and Binay, Theater and Stage Play director Jimboy Jumawan is reportedly running for Mayor under the banner of Partido Bagong Maharlika party. [3]
In the Vice Mayoralty election, Makati 1st District Representative Monique Lagdameo of UNA and Karla Mercado of Liberal, the daughter of former Makati vice mayor and primary witness of Binay's corruption cases, Ernesto Mercado, declared their candidacy for Vice Mayor.

[5] Incumbent mayor Kid Peña holds his proclamation rally, together with his running mate Karla Mercado at the Plaza Lawton to jump start his campaign dubbed as "Bagong Makati" (The New Makati). He stated that the major supporters and former allies of the Binay family are backing out their support to the Binays and they are campaigned for Peña's candidacy. [6]
Binay formally started their campaign at the intersection of Metropolitan Avenue, Pasong Tamo and P. Ocampo Extension. Jejomar Binay, Abby's father and presidential candidate for the United Nationalist Alliance, and his running mate Gringo Honasan was present in the rally. [7] Binay said after the rally that her surname is a "blessing" and a "curse", despite being part of a political dynasty. [8]
Her brother, Junjun Binay was affected on the corruption issues faced him by his critics and enemies and he criticized Peña's performance as mayor of Makati. He also criticized Pena's affiliated party, the Liberal Party due to vote buying. [9]

This was particularly true regarding his promise to eliminate the wide-scale drug menace in the country, his record of zero criminal tolerance in Davao City, which he ruled for more than 22 years, as well as his stronger stance against corruption.

In his campaign, Duterte accused the political elites of not doing much to solve the problems in a move that was described as populist.
