In the last post, I told you that I would research the law regarding special elections in Arkansas.  Here it is:

7-5-104. Election expenses — Allocation.

(b)  (1)  Except for the expense of party primary elections under § 7-7-201 et seq., all expenses for special elections, including runoff elections as required by law, for congressional, state, district, county, and township offices shall be paid by the counties in which they are held.
     (2)  All expenses of special elections, including any runoff elections as required by law, for municipal offices shall be paid by the city or incorporated town calling for the elections.
     (3)  All expenses of special elections called by any county for the purpose of referring a question or measure to the voters of the county shall be paid by the county.

There was one  occasion before the Quorum Court where I have heard Jill Jones tell us
that the election was paid for with private donations.  

Now we have a reason the contest the validity of this special election August 10th.  

What are you going to do Saline County voters?  The next tea party meeting will be July 8th at Browns Country Restaurant in Benton at 6:30 p.m.   I urge you to visit to develop a game plan.
