Rep. Wilson says he will not run for the Third Congressional District Seat #MS03 #msleg

By: Sarah Ulmer - January 17, 2018

Rep. Cory Wilson

Representative Cory Wilson says he will NOT be considering a run for the Third Congressional District seat:

“After Congressman Harper announced that he would not seek re-election to Congress, I had been encouraged to consider running for the seat. While a part of me would like to return to Washington to help ‘Make America Great Again,’ and to help ‘drain the swamp’ – two things that need to be done – this is not the right time for my family or for me to run for Congress.  That time may come in the future, but for now I am working hard to honor the commitment I made to voters in Madison County to serve them well in the Mississippi House.”
