{"biography":"Lucas Everett Jones is the Libertarian Party nominee for the North Carolina House of Representatives, District 40 (Wake County), on the November 3, 2026 general-election ballot [1][2]. The Libertarian primary for the office, originally scheduled for March 3, 2026, was canceled, and Jones advanced directly to the general election, where he faces Democratic incumbent Phil Rubin [1][2].\n\nPublicly available sources provide no details about Jones's education, professional background, or prior public service; his Ballotpedia entry lists only his candidacy and party affiliation. A Libertarian Party of North Carolina Facebook post introducing him to voters said he was willing to appear on podcasts to discuss his experience and positions, but did not name specific policy positions [3].\n\n## Sources\n[1] [Lucas Jones (North Carolina) - Ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/Lucas_Jones_(North_Carolina)) \u2014 accessed 2026-07-19\n[2] [NC State Board of Elections \u2014 2026 Candidate Listing](https://s3.amazonaws.com/dl.ncsbe.gov/Elections/2026/Candidate%20Filing/Candidate_Listing_2026.csv) \u2014 accessed 2026-07-19\n[3] [North Carolina Libertarian candidate for State House District 40 Lucas Jones - Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/libertarianparty/posts/north-carolina-libertarian-candidate-for-state-house-district-40-lucas-jones/1475034050645287/) \u2014 accessed 2026-07-19","campaigns":[{"contest":"state_house_040","county":"wake","county_count":1,"electiondate":"Tue, 03 Nov 2026 00:00:00 GMT","pgr":"general","state":"NC","title":"Nc House Of Representatives District 040"}],"cf_filings":[],"firstname":"Lucas","fullname":"Lucas Everett Jones","lastname":"Jones","middlename":"Everett","office_history":[{"campaigns":[{"contest":"state_house_040","contest_title":"Nc House Of Representatives District 040","county":"wake","county_count":1,"electiondate":"2026-11-03","office_county":null,"office_key":"state_house","office_title":"State Representative","party":"LIB","pgr":"general","state":"NC"}],"county":null,"cycles":[{"general":{"contest":"state_house_040","contest_title":"Nc House Of Representatives District 040","county":"wake","county_count":1,"electiondate":"2026-11-03","office_county":null,"office_key":"state_house","office_title":"State Representative","party":"LIB","pgr":"general","state":"NC"},"party":"LIB","primary":null,"term":null,"year":2026}],"office_key":"state_house","office_title":"State Representative","state":"NC","terms":[]}],"summary":"Lucas Everett Jones is the Libertarian candidate for North Carolina House District\u202f40 in the 2026 general election.","terms":[],"token":"2a36f8509e9254ea"}
