John Joyner Snow Jr. (born October 24, 1945) is a former Democratic member of the North Carolina Senate, who represented the 50th district from 2005 to 2011.[1] His district included Cherokee, Clay, Graham, Haywood, Jackson, Macon, Swain and Transylvania counties. Snow was the co-chair of the Subcommittee on Justice and Public Safety.

Franklin orthodontist Jim Davis defeated Snow in 2010 by a margin of less than 200 votes after Snow was subjected to two dozen mass-mailed negative ads during the election.[2] After the election, it was revealed that many of the mail-outs were funded by groups founded by businessman Art Pope, including Civitas Action and Real Jobs NC.[2] In 2012, Snow ran in a re-match with Davis to return to his former seat in the Senate.[3] He was defeated by a substantial margin of 12,548 votes.[4]

Prior to entering politics, Snow played football. He was a defensive tackle for Wake Forest University, and was drafted in the 15th round of the 1967 NFL Draft by the New Orleans Saints.[5]
