In the mayoralty race, Mauricio Domogan retained his seat with a victory over retired judge Del Claravall. However, the latter didn't go down without a fight. Claravall only trailed behind Domogan by a few thousand votes based on the final tally.
In the vice-mayoralty race, it wasn't even a close battle as incumbent Edison Bilog trampled Isabelo Cosalan Jr., Betty Lourdes Tabanda, and Fred Bagbagen at the polls. It can be recalled that Bilog got elevated as vice-mayor back in 2014 when then vice-mayor Daniel Farinas died from a heart attack.
In the city council, seven were re-elected to retain their posts. The five newcomers are as follows - Edgar Avila, Mylen Yaranon, Lilia Farinas, Arthur Allad-iw, and Benny Bomogao.
