Jones pulls petition to challenge Boehner
Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones has pulled a petition to challenge U.S. House Minority Leader John Boehner in next year’s GOP primary, county Board of Elections officials confirmed today, April 28.
By pulling the petition this morning, Jones initiated the first step in taking on the West Chester Twp. Republican in the May 4, 2010 primary for the U.S. 8th Congressional District.
He now has until Feb. 19, 2010 to collect 50 signatures and pay a $85 filing fee.
Both are popular candidates and powerful fund-raisers. Boehner won his re-election bid last year with 68 percent of the vote; Jones won his with 71 percent.

I will be the first to offer to help collect signatures for the sheriff, and anything else that I can do. He gets the job done and I believe he can meet part way with others on ideas. YOU got my vote
