Three-term consecutive, five-term nonconsecutive Mayor Gerry Jaucian died on May 4, 2018.^[13] Then Vice Mayor Carlwyn Baldo ascended to this office.^[14] Baldo is seeking a full term in this position. He sought this office in 2010 and 2013, losing both times to Jaucian. He won as Vice Mayor in a fractured field in 2016, defeating the then, two-term consecutive, five-term nonconsecutive incumbent vice mayor. He is facing off with three-term Ako Bicol Representative Rodel Batocabe and elevated Vice Mayor Victor Perete.

On December 22, 2018, Batocabe was attending a gift-giving event for senior citizens and persons with disabilities in the rural barangay of Burgos of the municipality when two men approached and shot him. His police escort, Senior Police Officer 2 Orlando Diaz, was also killed, while seven elderly attendees were also wounded in the attack. Batocabe and Diaz were taken to a hospital in Legazpi City, where both were pronounced dead.^[15]

On January 3, 2019, Philippine National Police Director General Oscar Albayalde announced in a press conference that Mayor Carlwyn Baldo is the suspected mastermind for the murder of Representative Batocabe.^[16] According to the police, Baldo hired six men to kill Batocabe and set up $95,000 in funds to pay for the murder. The plot had allegedly been in the works since August 2018, when Baldo supplied $4,600 to one of the hitmen to purchase guns and motorcycles.^[17] Mayor Carlwyn Baldo denied the allegations in a statement read over the phone to local radio stations, calling himself " a convenient scapegoat."^[17]

On January 6, 2019, Lakas–CMD said that it has revoked its Certificate of Nomination and Acceptance (CONA) for Baldo.^[18] Batocabe's party, the National Unity Party named his widow, Gertrudes, as his substitute.^[19] However, Representative Batocabe's name is going to remain on the ballot.

On May 6, 2019, the Legazpi City Regional Trial Court ordered the arrest of Baldo for the murder of Batocabe and his police escort.^[20] While the police said that Baldo has sent word that he would immediately surrender when he is served arrest warrants,^[21] he was declared by the police as a "wanted person" after failure to serve his warrant of arrest two days after its issuance.^[22] Baldo surrendered on May 10, 2019, four days after the court issued the warrant for his arrest.^[23]
