| Description | But what's not clear is whether Jones, a longtime councilwoman, would want to vacate her City Council seat for such a short congressional stint.
In a statement released to the Free Press on Wednesday, Jones' campaign said, “We’re reviewing the results of last night’s election and a statement will be forthcoming.”
That decision is fraught with uncertainty, though, should she decide she doesn't want to be congresswoman for two months: Under state rules, a party nominee can't get his or her name off the ballot unless the person moves out of state, dies, has a physical ailment that keeps the person from serving or is otherwise disqualified. |
