Wet-Dry Referendum

By: Leisel Caldwell

More rumors to report on the Wet - Dry Referendum for Randolph County:  according to our sources the Randolph County Probate Judge had issues with the way people signed the petition.  Many signers choose to print their name to make it more legible.  This was not acceptable to the Judge.  The signers who printed their names were thrown out as well as illegible signatures.  As a result the petition came up short for the needed number of voters' signatures.   

The story is not over, not yet anyway. It has been reported that a couple of the organizers of the petition have headed to Montgomery. They are looking for help in overruling Randolph County's Probate Judge.  Will the voters of Randolph County be allowed to vote on the sale of alcohol in this county in November?  Stay tuned because just like in soap opera world the  story continues.
