Former vice governor Ryan Singson is the running mate of his uncle, reelectionist Governor Jerry Singson, in the 2025 elections
BAGUIO CITY – The supposed showdown in Ilocos Sur was averted after former vice governor Ryan Singson dropped his bid to challenge his uncle, reelectionist Governor Jerry Singson, in the 2025 elections.
Governor Singson will almost be guaranteed a second term as Ryan has decided to run again as his vice governor.
Jerry is the brother of political kingpin Luis “Chavit” Singson. Ryan is Chavit’s son.
Ryan was Ilocos Sur governor for three terms, from 2013 to 2022.
Running for board in Ilocos Sur’s first district are Board Members Art Constantine Oandasan and Francisco Arturo Ranches III, Ismael Patrick Baterina, Vigan Councilor Janina Medina-Fariñas, and Reymark Rafanan.
The fathers of Rafanan and Baterina were former political rivals of Chavit.
Running as board for District II are BM Ericson Singson, Benjamin Maggay, and Leopoldo Gironellea, and Pablito Sanidad Jr., and Fayinna Pilar Zaragoza.
Former Narvacan vice mayor Zaragoza also was a rival of Chavit.
So far no one has filed their COC against the Bileg bets.
Chavit is expected to file his COC for senator in Manila on Monday, October 7. – Rappler.com
