2025 Marikina local elections

Local elections are scheduled to be held in Marikina on May 12, 2025, as part of the 2025 Philippine general election. The electorate will elect a mayor, a vice mayor, sixteen members of the Marikina City Council, and two district representatives to the House of Representatives of the Philippines. The officials elected in the election will assume their respective offices on June 30, 2025, for a three-year-long term.

Background
In the 2022 elections, Marcelino Teodoro and Marion Andres were elected to the mayoralty and vice mayoralty respectively. Their coalition, Team MarCy, attained outright control of the city council, winning 14 of the 16 elective seats in the legislature.

Mayoral election
The incumbent mayor is Marcelino Teodoro, who has served since 2016 and was reelected in 2022 with 82.08% of the vote. Teodoro is term-limited and is barred from seeking reelection. This will be the first election since 2010 in which an incumbent mayor is ineligible for reelection.

Early in the race, incumbent representative Stella Quimbo, as well as her husband, former representative Miro Quimbo, emerged as potential candidates for the race, with the former expressing her interest in running.

The sixteen seats are equally divided between the city's councilor districts, which are derived from the congressional districts. Each district has its own set of candidates, with the eight candidates with the most votes per district being elected to the council.

Term-limited incumbents
Among the 16 elective members, four members are term-limited and are barred from seeking reelection.

House of Representatives elections
Coinciding with the local elections, two representatives from the city's two congressional districts will be elected to represent their respective districts in the House of Representatives in the 20th Congress. In the 2022 elections, Marjorie Ann Teodoro and Stella Quimbo were elected to represent the first and second districts respectively. Both representatives are in the majority bloc in the 19th Congress.

First district
The first district covers the barangays of Barangka, Calumpang, Industrial Valley Complex, Jesus de la Peña, Malanday, San Roque, Santa Elena, Santo Niño, and Tañong. The incumbent representative is Marjorie Ann Teodoro, who has served since 2022 and was elected that year with 73.61% of the vote. Teodoro is eligible for reelection to a second term.

Second district
The second district covers the barangays of Concepcion Uno, Concepcion Dos, Fortune, Marikina Heights, Parang, Nangka, and Tumana. The incumbent representative is Stella Quimbo, who has served since 2019 and was reelected in 2022 with 82.70% of the vote. Quimbo is eligible for reelection to a third term.

Despite facing scrutiny with her support of the Maharlika Wealth Fund and defense of Vice President Sara Duterte's confidential funds during the 19th Congress, Quimbo stated that she will remain with the Liberal Party for the 2025 election. In response to calls to sanction Quimbo for her positions, the Liberal Party announced that its management committee voted to keep Quimbo in the party and stated that its members are allowed to take positions contrary to the party's platform in recognition of their "freedom of expression and dissent".

Leading up to the election, Quimbo has expressed interest in retiring to run for mayor and was considered as a possible replacement to Vice President Duterte as secretary of education.
