At a press conference shortly after the election, Wilkinson said he did not know what role Jones would play in his administration and that much of it would depend on what Jones had meant when he said he did not agree with all of Wilkinson's positions.
選挙直後の記者会見で、ウィルキンソンは自分の政権でジョーンズがどんな役割を果たすか分からないと発言し、その役割の多くはウィルキンソンの立場全てに合意できないとジョーンズが言ったときに意味したことに依存すると語った。
