Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio filed her certificate of candidacy (COC) to seek reelection for the upcoming Eleksyon 2022.

Her brother, Sebastian "Baste" Duterte, filed his COC for vice mayor under the Hugpong ng Pagbabago party.

Despite previous statements, President Duterte announced that Mayor Sara would run for President with Senator Bong Go as her vice presidential candidate.

However, President Duterte will no longer run for public office and will instead focus on recovery efforts from the COVID-19 pandemic for the remainder of his term.

Duterte-Carpio has no intention of becoming a member of PDP or of being its standard-bearer now or in the near future.

Despite her filing for reelection, supporters are urging Mayor Duterte to reconsider and join the presidential race for the 2022 elections.

Groups such as Inday Sara Duterte Ako (ISDA) and Sara All Philippines 2022 believe she is the best candidate for president and are not losing hope that she will take on the challenge.
