Editor,
Welcome to the new era of politics in Carroll County. The recent meeting brought in many new faces and names to Carroll County Democratic Central Committee. Allowed by an exception to Party rules they were allowed to vote, these new members immediately voted in a new chairman.
In his nomination speech, the new chairman admitted that he had no idea what the job entailed or how he would execute the unknown duties, and whose speech didn’t mention any Democratic Party work.
In the haste of out with the old and in with the new, these new Party members (many who admitted this was their first experience with politics) cast aside the current chairman who noted in his nomination speech that under his leadership for the past 35 years, Democrats have dominated county politics. Currently, Carroll County is the only county in Arkansas to have all Democratic officials.
Heck of a Job, y’all.
I noticed after the meeting ended, after they won the election, the leaders of “It’s not a Coup” left without cleaning the room; putting away chairs and tables and making sure all the trash was cleared from the room. I’m sure they will soon learn that with power comes responsibility.
Good luck to us all.
