BATANGAS CITY — Former Batangas governor Vilma Santos-Recto filed her certificate of candidacy (CoC) Tuesday, seeking the gubernatorial post she has already occupied three times since 2007.

She filed her CoC at the Commission on Elections office at the Batangas Provincial Capitol with her sons Lucky Manzano, who is running for vice governor, and Ryan Recto, who is seeking a congressional seat in the 6th District, the same position occupied by his father, Finance Secretary Ralph Recto, who accompanied them to the filing.
