Elections
2011
Jones ran in the 2011 election for Louisiana House of Representatives District 44. She lost to incumbent Rickey Hardy (D) and Vincent Pierre (D) in the primary election on October 22, 2011. Because Louisiana uses a blanket primary system, a candidate can be declared the overall winner of the seat by garnering 50 percent +1 of the vote in the primary. However, if no candidate reaches this threshold, then a general election will take place on November 19, 2011. Hardy and Pierre won the primary.[1]
