Local elections were held in the Province of Marinduque on May 9, 2016 as part of the 2016 general election. Voters selected candidates for all local positions: a town mayor, vice mayor and town councilors, as well as members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, a vice-governor, a governor and a representative for the lone district of Marinduque in the House of Representatives.
In this election, a number of provincial-level officials are seeking reelection, including incumbent governor Carmencita Reyes and incumbent congresswoman Regina O. Reyes.
Regina Ongsiako Reyes was the congresswoman from June 30, 2013 - February 1, 2016. Reyes was disqualified by the Supreme Court due to issues with her citizenship. Lord Allan Jay Q. Velasco was sworn on February 1, 2016, becoming the incumbent representative.
