The Team Lani Cayetano (TLC) won all the seats for mayor, vice mayor, representatives of the 1st District of Taguig-Pateros and the 2nd District of Taguig, and councilor. 

The Commission on Elections’ City Board of Canvassers proclaimed the winners in Taguig on May 13. 

“Ganap na 1:25 pm ngayong araw ay naIproklama na ako para sa isang panibagong termino bilang Mayor ng mahal nating Lungsod Taguig. Sa napakalaking suportang inyong ipinakita, malinaw na bumoto kayo upang ipagkatiwala sa amin ang kinabukasan ng inyong mga anak, pamilya at ng ating Probinsyudad! (At exactly 1:25 pm today, I have been Proclaimed for a new term as Mayor of our beloved City of Taguig.

Cayetano won her second consecutive term as mayor against Arnel Cerafica of the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP) and independent candidate Brigido Licudine.
