TALISAY, Batangas – HEARD of the Natanauan surname in Batangas’ politics? Yes, they are the political leaders of this 3rd class municipality.

Outgoing third termer Mayor Gerry filed his Certificate of Candidacy (COC) and is now running for Congressman of the 3rd District against incumbent Congresswoman Ma. Teresa Collantes.

For the mayoral post that Mayor Gerry will left behind, his son, incumbent Councilor Jerome will run against his uncle Ernesto.

Running for vice mayoralty with Councilor Jerome is another uncle, punumbarangay Leonardo Jr.  while his brother Jefferson will run for councilor.

Incumbent vice mayor, Charlie, is reportedly not running in any position.
