Former vice president Leni Robredo is now the first female mayor of Naga City after garnering more than 84,300 votes in the mayoralty race.

The Naga City mayor-elect thanked the Nagueños and the Filipinos for her landslide win as the city's local chief executive and for the presumptive wins of her allies in the Senate and House of Representatives. "Thank you very much, my fellow Nagueños, for the big win -84,259 votes equivalent to 91.6 percent of those who voted. Thank you also for your support to An Bagong Team Naga!!," she wrote on Facebook on Tuesday, May 13.
