Leviste backs out of governor race
October 06, 2024
|The Philippine Star
Batangas Vice Gov. Mark Leviste yesterday backed out of the race for governor of Batangas province, choosing instead to vie for a seat in the House of Representatives.
Gov. Hermilando Mandanas also filed yesterday his certificate of candidacy (COC) for vice governor, opting to compete against actor Luis Manzano, son of actress Vilma SantosRecto who is running for governor.
Months before the filing of COCs, Leviste had posters and billboards around the province displaying his interest to join the gubernatorial race and switch places with Mandanas.
"After careful consideration and discernment, I have decided to step aside as a gubernatorial aspirant to honor my relationship, loyalty and support for governor Vilma Santos-Recto.
Our goal has always been and will continue to be the progressive development of the Province of Batangas," Leviste said in a social media post.
