Election results.

Gubernatorial elections were held in the Philippines on May 10, 2010. All provinces elected their governors for three-year terms that would begin on June 30, 2010. Governors who were serving their third consecutive term were prohibited from seeking re-election, but were eligible to run for any other position.

Highly urbanized cities and independent component cities such as Zamboanga City, Angeles City and Cebu City, and including Metro Manila and the municipality of Pateros are outside the jurisdiction of any province and thus won't elect for governors of their mother provinces (Pampanga and Cebu, for Angeles and Cebu City). They, along with Metro Manila would elect mayors instead.
