In 2009, he was also appointed chairman of the North Carolina Economic Development Board.[1] Joines, a Democrat, was elected mayor of Winston-Salem on November 6, 2001. He defeated Republican incumbent Mayor Jack Cavanagh, Jr. by a wide margin. Before his election, Joines had served as deputy assistant city manager.[2] Joines had been named as a possible challenger to Congresswoman Virginia Foxx in North Carolina's 5th district in the 2006 election, but declined to enter the race.[3] In the 2012 North Carolina gubernatorial election, many suggested Joines as a potential candidate in the Democratic primary, but he declined, stating that there was still work he wished to do in Winston-Salem.[4] In the 2013 election, Joines was challenged by Gardenia Henley in the Democratic primary.[5] His Republican opponent, James Knox, dropped out of the race in August after it was revealed he had used a racial epithet to refer to an elections worker, although his name was still on the ballot. Joines was elected to his fourth term in the general election.[6] In the 2016 election (Winston-Salem elections had moved to even-numbered years)[7], Joines was easily re-elected, with only a write-in candidate opposing him.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nccommerce.com/en/AboutDOC/CommerceBoardsCommissions/NorthCarolinaEconomicDevelopmentBoard/BoardMembers/|title=Home|publisher=|access-date=2009-12-08|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091121021657/http://www.nccommerce.com/en/AboutDOC/CommerceBoardsCommissions/NorthCarolinaEconomicDevelopmentBoard/BoardMembers/|archive-date=2009-11-21|dead-url=yes|df=}} 2. ^{{cite news |first=William |last=Holmes |title=Raleigh results again uncertain, Winston-Salem unseats mayor |date=2001-11-06 |publisher=The Associated Press }} 3. ^{{cite news |author=Editorial Staff |title=JOINES' DECISION |date=2006-01-11|publisher=Winston-Salem Journal }} 4. ^{{cite news |last=Graff |first=Laura |url=http://www2.journalnow.com/news/2012/jan/30/6/winston-salem-mayor-allen-joines-wont-run-for-gove-ar-1870838/ |title=Winston-Salem Mayor Allen Joines won't run for governor |newspaper=Winston-Salem Journal |date=January 30, 2012}} (updated December 12, 2012) 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.journalnow.com/news/elections/local/article_6fa5f382-1a8e-11e3-9a37-001a4bcf6878.html|title=Joines easily beats Democratic challenger Henley|work=Winston-Salem Journal}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.journalnow.com/news/elections/local/article_f85e074c-4698-11e3-8af2-001a4bcf6878.html|title=Joines re-elected as mayor; incumbents retain council seats|work=Winston-Salem Journal}} 7. ^[https://canons.sog.unc.edu/municipal-elections-odd-year-and-odd-man-out/ Municipal Elections–Odd Year and Odd Man Out] 8. ^Journal: Winston-Salem Mayor Allen Joines easily coasts to election win External links
