John James Flynt Jr. (November 8, 1914 – June 24, 2007) was an American Democratic Party politician who served in the United States House of Representatives for two congressional districts in Georgia from 1954 to 1979.

In World War II, Flynt served as Aide-de-Camp for Brigadier General Robert W. Grow in the 3rd Armored Division in France and was awarded the Bronze Star Medal in 1944.

He was a lawyer in private practice and was assistant United States attorney for northern district of Georgia from 1939 to 1941 and again in 1945 and 1946.

[1] Flynt was a member of the Georgia House of Representatives 1947–1948, and was solicitor general for Griffin Judicial Circuit from 1949 to 1954.

Jack Flynt was the focus of two books by the political scientist, Richard Fenno: Home Style and Congress at the Grassroots.

Flynt cast votes against abortion, gun control, the Equal Rights Amendment, Medicare, and public housing.

By the early 1970s, the southern and western suburbs of Atlanta had begun spilling into the district, and gradually swamped the native-born farming and small-town population in the voting booth.
