Hernandez, 49, first entered the provincial capitol after he won as vice governor in 2013. He became Laguna governor after then governor ER Ejercito was removed from office for campaign overspending in 2013 polls.

Hernandez and Ejercito locked horns again in the 2016 elections that ended with a victory for Hernandez.
