The 2020 PNP Primary Election for HD-16, a contest mainly between Education department worker Jenniffer González endorsed Liza Alfaro, Young Candidate Juan Javier Rodríguez, Juan Núñez, and Ex-Isabela PNP President Melvin Concepción resulted in a close win for Liza Alfaro
Here, Governor race endorsements (Where Pierluisi endorsed the three Losers) played less of a roll than local support, where Liza Alfaro leveraging the support from the Isabela PNP was able to overcome all the other candidates's support; allowing her to become the nominee in HD-16.
