Local elections was held in the Province of Cebu last May 13, 2013 within the Philippine general election. Voters will select candidates for all local positions: a town mayor, vice mayor and town councilors, as well as members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, the vice-governor, governor and representatives for the six districts of Cebu. Incumbent governor Gwendolyn Garcia is barred for seeking another term because she is limited to three terms only.
On April 27, 2012, incumbent governor Gwendolyn Garcia announced her intention to run for senator. She also announced that her brother incumbent 3rd District Representative Pablo John Garcia will be running as governor of the province. On September 1, 2012, One Cebu announced that former Danao City vice mayor Ramon "Boboy" Durano IV as Garcia's running mate.
On May 12, 2012, businessman Glenn Soco announced his intention to run for vice governor. He ran for that position in 2010 as running mate of Garcia. However, he lost to incumbent Greg Sanchez. He filed a protest, but Sanchez died on April 29, 2011.
On May 25, 2012, Garcia joined PDP-Laban and was included in the senatorial line-up of the United Nationalist Alliance.
On September 20, 2012 Vice President Jejomar Binay announced that Garcia withdrew her senatorial bid and will run for the House of Representatives instead.
