- Source: 2016 Philippine gubernatorial elections
Gubernatorial elections were held in the Philippines on May 9, 2016. All provinces elected their provincial governors for three-year terms, who will be inaugurated on June 30, 2016, after their proclamation. Governors that are currently serving their third consecutive terms are prohibited from running as governors (they may run for any other posts however).
Metro Manila and highly urbanized cities and independent component cities such as Angeles City, Cebu City and Davao City are outside the jurisdiction of any province and thus would not run elections for governors of their mother provinces (Pampanga, Cebu and Davao del Sur respectively). These would elect mayors instead.
Davao Occidental held its first gubernatorial election on this day.
