The 1969 Philippine presidential and vice presidential elections were held on November 11, 1969. Incumbent President Ferdinand Marcos won a second full term as President of the Philippines. Marcos was the last president in the entire electoral history of the Philippines who ran for and won a second term. His running mate, incumbent Vice President Fernando Lopez, was also elected to a third full term as Vice President of the Philippines. A total of twelve candidates ran for president, but ten of those got less than 0.01% of the vote.

Marcos, who was term-limited in the upcoming 1973 election, proposed drafting a new constitution. An election in 1970 elected delegates to the constitutional convention. Due to rising unrest, Marcos declared martial law and suspended the current (1935) constitution in 1972. The constitutional convention, which by then had seen its delegates opposed to Marcos dictatorship arrested or fled the country, then passed its draft constitution, and a plebiscite in January 1973 approved the constitution. A petition declaring that the 1973 constitution as unlawfully enacted was dismissed by the Supreme Court. Further plebiscites in July 1973 and 1977 extended Marcos's term, and a presidential election won't be held again until 1981.
