Sheriff Jones not running for Congress

Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones announced today, June 18, that he will not challenge U.S. House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-West Chester Twp., for congress.

He made the announcement via Twitter at 10:50 a.m.

“I have decided not to turn in my petitions for congress. This is not the time. Congressmans office has been notified this date. Sheriff Jones,” reads the sheriff’s post on the Web site.

Jones pulled petitions April 28 to run in the 2010 Republican primary, but said he would decide within three months whether to actually file.

This set the stage for an epic political showdown between Jones — a media-savvy lawman who is popular in the most populous county in Boehner’s district — and one of the most powerful Republicans in the country.
