Don’t let that fool you….Jones is bad news and is not a tea party guy by any means. Voted with Obama more than most Republicans. A 75 heritage and 84 ACU averge is awful for eastern NC.
Griffin is far more conservatvie than either McCain or any of the Bushes……he would be far more Tea Party. Jones is just an SOB contrarian….no one likes him, GOPe OR Tea Party types.
Ok. Thanks for the info. My suspicions are up with every one of these elections!
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Walter B. Jones Sr. (D) was the representative from the same area for years until his death. His son picked up the seat after switching parties, because the republicans had gained power in eastern NC. Another case of a family of career politicians.
Walter B. Jones Jr.....RINO
