Laurel.JPG Senator Jose P. Laurel Former President and then-Senator Jose P. Laurel initially had intentions to seek the Nacionalista's nomination for president in 1953 but did not go through with it. He then proposed to endorse Secretary of National Defense Ramon Magsaysay, whose successful anti-insurgency and anti-communist initiatives had strained his relations with President Quirino and the Liberal. Senate President Camilo Osías sought the presidential nomination but ultimately lost to Magsaysay. Senator Carlos P. Garcia of Bohol was picked to be his running-mate. Liberal Party 100px|thumb|left|Former Foreign Affairs Secretary Carlos P. Romulo The Liberal Party renominated President Elpidio Quirino and former House Speaker and Liberal Party President José Yulo for president and vice-president respectively. Following the nomination, Philippine Ambassador to Washington Carlos P. Romulo and his men walked out of the Liberal convention and formed the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party then nominated Romulo for the presidency and supported the re-election of Vice President Fernando Lopez. What was supposed to be a three-way race was reduced to a battle between the ruling Liberals against the Nacionalistas after the Democratic candidates withdrew in support of Magsaysay, resulting in the Nacionalista-Democratic coalition. Results President Magsaysay carried most of the provinces except Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, Tawi-Tawi, Sulu and Abra in which Ilocos Sur is a bailiwick and home province of President Quirino.
