2025 Manila local elections

In 2025, the grown-ups in Manila got to pick some very important people! It's like choosing the principal and teachers for your school, but for the whole city. They voted for a new mayor, who is like the main boss, and a vice mayor, who is like the assistant boss.

They also chose people to be on the city council, which is like a group of advisors. These chosen leaders will help make decisions for Manila for three whole years!

On May 12, 2025, was a special day called election day. People went to places to cast their votes, which are like secret messages saying who they want to lead. It's a bit like when you vote for your favorite game at recess. This vote was part of a bigger election happening all over the Philippines. The people chosen on this day would start their important jobs on June 30, 2025.

Guess what? The election in Manila brought some new faces to the top jobs! A person named Isko Moreno became the mayor again, which is super cool because he had been mayor before. And a new vice mayor, Chi Atienza, was chosen. They won against the people who were the mayor and vice mayor before. It shows that people can choose different leaders each time!

Choosing leaders for a city is a big deal! These elected people help decide important things like where to build new parks, how to keep the streets clean, and make sure everyone has what they need. It's like when your class votes on what game to play; the decision affects everyone. The leaders chosen in 2025 would help make Manila a better place for everyone who lives there.
