On 24 May and 31 May, there was information posted on this site regarding a MANDATORY report for all candidates to report to the Circuit Clerk their campaign receipts and expenses. The first report was due on 10 May and the second report was due on 10 Jun.
This isn't a popularity contest. We need people in office who will pay attention to the details. Holding public office in Tunica County, MS is serious business. Why would anyone trust you if you can't even get your reports in on time?
As of 15 Jun 2011, about 11 a.m., this is what was in the Circuit Clerk's file or rather what wasn't in the Circuit Clerk's file:
The following candidates have missed both the 10 May and 10 Jun filing deadlines:
Casey L. Johnson: Candidate for Coroner
Lawyer Porter: Candidate for Circuit Clerk
"Big" Brian Smith: Candidate for District 2 Supervisor
Christopher Thomas: Candidate for Coroner
Tammie Turner: Candidate for Tax Assessor & Collector
The following candidates missed the 10 Jun filing deadline:
Lil Joe Anderson: Incumbent Constable for the Southern District
Arthur "Hot Shot" Ankston: Candidate for Sheriff
Ellis W. Darby: Incumbent Justice Court Judge for the Southern District
James E. Dunn: Incumbent District 1 Supervisor
Thommy Gibbs: Candidate for District 3 Supervisor
Glen Grant: Incumbent Coroner
Tyrone Hall: Candidate for Superintendent of Education
Rodney Hibbler: Incumbent Justice Court Judge for the Northern District
Mark Hudson: Candidate for District 2 Supervisor
Curtis "Rerun" Jackson: Candidate for District 4 Supervisor
Louise Linzy: Candidate Justice Court Judge for the Southern District
I hope I have the offices correct. By the way, when you turn in your reports at the Circuit Clerk's Office, make sure the Circuit Clerk or one of her staff puts a date stamp on the document. Three reports had not been stamped.
