Madison County Supervisor Tim Johnson has announced his intent to run for Central District Transportation Commissioner, challenging incumbent Dick Hall, who will be seeking his fourth term in the office.
Johnson qualified today as a Republican candidate and said he is running to bring jobs to Mississippi.
"Mississippi needs more jobs," Johnson said in a press release. "We can bring more jobs to our state by improving our roads and bridges and making conditions favorable for increased economic development."
In his second-term, Johnson, the District 2 Madison County supervisor, made it widely known for months that he had no plans to run for re-election, but there was broad speculation about what he would do next.
In late January he revealed that a run against Hall was something he was considering.
