The Constitution Party nominee for Greene County (North Carolina) Commissioner has won the election. Jerry R. Jones polled 3,232 votes in unofficial tallies, defeating his only opponent, Democrat Natasha Sutton, who received 2,908. The final figures will be somewhat higher.
This is the first time a party other than the Republican and Democratic Parties has won a partisan election in North Carolina since the 1890’s, when the Peoples (Populist) Party won many offices.
There was no Republican. This is a situation where a third-party vote is entirely warranted.
