GOV TOTO IS UNOPPOSED

Re-electionist Iloilo Governor Arthur Defensor, Jr. turned out to be unopposed in the coming May 2025 elections.

Provincial Election Supervisor Atty. Reinier Layson said Defensor’s supposed opponent 28-year old Mary Frances Chloe Noble of Brgy. Baybay Sur, Miagao, Iloilo withdrew her candidacy last December 26, 2024.

As such, only the name of Gov. Defensor will appear in the Official Ballot’s Candidates for Provincial Governor in the Province of Iloilo, which the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) has already started printing.

Defensor will be on his last and final term as Governor of the Province of Iloilo.

He filed his certificate of candidacy (COC) on October 7, 2024 along with his running mate for vice governor, Anilao Mayor Lee Ann Debuque.
