In an announcement on LinkedIn, Joe Hunt announced his intent to run in the Republican primary against Congressman Jody Hice (R-GA-10). Mr. Hunt, whose LinkedIn profile lists that he is the Vice President of Franchise Relations at Zaxby’s Franchising, Inc., intends to run as more of a centrist and on a “shoe-string budget”.
I get the shoe-string budget as we just concluded the most expensive congressional race in US history over in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District, but the million dollar question will be if his centrist alignment will help him beat an incumbent congressman who also elected Paul Broun.
