GOP Down-Ticket Team to Campaign Together at Fundraiser

UPDATE: RUMOURS RIFE THAT ASA WILL JOIN THE GOP DOWN-TICKET TEAM AT THIS EVENT. LOOK FOR UPCOMING ANALYSIS OF WHAT THIS CAN DO FOR THE RACE.

It seems that the bulk of the Republican ticket is campaigning together. Jim LaGrone and Senator Jim Holt, Republican candidates for Secretary of State and Lieutenant Governor, scheduled a "Jim and Jim" fundraiser this Saturday in Jonesboro. Attorney General Candidate, former state Senator Gunner DeLay of Fort Smith, has decided to join in as well.

This is from the release announcing the event:

Come out under the shade trees along the lake to enjoy cold lemonade, crispy catfish, and banana pudding . Play horseshoes, volley ball, badmitton, sing karaoke, or try your hand at fishing. Bring your lawn chairs! Tickets are 1 for $15 or 2 for $25 or a couple and children for $30.00 This will be a wonderful time to fellowship.
