Local elections were held in Angeles City on May 13, 2019, as part of the 2019 Philippine general election. Angeles City voters will elect a mayor, a vice mayor, and 10 out of 12 councilors of the Angeles City Council.
The city had 198,777 registered voters and elected Carmelo Lazatin Jr. for the first time with a total of 59,192 votes. He was proclaimed mayor-elect on May 14, 2019.[1]
This election marked the conclusion of Incumbent Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan Sr.'s tenure, as he had completed his three consecutive terms and was no longer eligible for re-election.
With Pamintuan stepping down, the mayoral race became highly contested, featuring three major candidates:
- Incumbent Vice Mayor Bryan Matthew Nepomuceno, who ran under the Partido Abe Kapampangan ticket alongside his running mate Edu Pamintuan, son of the outgoing mayor.
- Carmelo Lazatin Jr., an incumbent councilor and son of former First District Representative Carmelo "Tarzan" Lazatin, ran under the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas ticket with Vicky Vega-Cabigting as his running mate.
- Alexander Cauguiran, former OIC President of the Clark International Airport Corporation, ran under the KAMBILAN ticket alongside Filipino actress and former beauty queen Marang Morales.
