Incumbent Mayor Emmanuel "Manny" Maliksi is term-limited. He was initially floated to be the candidate of the Liberal Party-led Team One Imus (since dissolved) for the congressional post of the city's lone district, but gave way to Adrian Advincula of Team AJAA in the regular district congressional race following their unification talks brokered by Senator Panfilo Lacson. Maliksi will instead be running as the first nominee of Buklod Filipino Party-List. As a result, both groups will be fielding term-limited district Representative Alex Advincula as their common mayoralty candidate.
Advincula will be opposed by Anthony Astillero, his perennial opponent since their past congressional matches.
