Jones, who ran as Angelica Alarva, was among those proclaimed election winners in Laguna on Wednesday.

In 2016, Jones sought the vice-gubernatorial seat of the province, but settled for third in the three-way race at the time.

Prior, she had served three terms as board member, effectively putting her showbiz career on the sidelines.

"Sa panahong ngayon, very wise na kasi ang mga tao, ang mga botante. Hindi na puwede idaan ito sa [pagiging] artista lang, or sa pera lang.

"Ang nakikita ko dito, 'pag hinahalal ka ng taumbayan, mahalin mo, at gumawa ka ng magagandang programa," she said.
