Presidential elections, legislative elections and local elections in the Republic of the Philippines will be held on May 10, 2010. The duly elected president in the 2010 election will become the 15th President of the Philippines. Current President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is barred from seeking re-election due to term restrictions. Should current Vice-President Noli de Castro not retake office, his successor will be the 15th Vice-President of the Philippines.
The legislators elected in the 2010 elections will join the senators of the 2007 elections and will comprise the 15th Congress of the Philippines. The 2010 election will be administered by the Commission on Elections in compliance with the Republic Act No. 9369, also known as Amended Computerization Act of 2007. It will be the first national computerized election in the history of the Philippines.
Local elections are also to be held in all provinces, cities and municipalities.

[edit] House Bill No. 2306 and House Bill No. 3589
Nueva Ecija Rep. Eduardo Nonato N. Joson filled House Bill No. 2306 on August 29, 2007[4] and House Bill No. 3613 on February 18, 2008[5] to call for a national referendum and Presidential and Vice-Presidential snap elections. House Bill No. 2306 or the National referendum bill stipulates that a vote of confidence referendum on the President to be done and House Bill No. 3589 tackles that a snap election for the Offices of the President and the Vice-President. The House Committee of Suffrage and Electoral Reforms headed by Makati City Rep. Teodoro L. Locsin, Jr. opened the deliberations on the proposals on March 12, 2008[6] and passed both proposals on June 2, 2008[7]. Presidential Legal Counsel Sergio Apostol declared that the Snap Elections Bill was unconstitutional on the basis that Congress has no right to cut the President's term, adding to that Deputy Spokesperson Anthony Golez said that the bill needed a constitutional amendment [8].
