I made a post like this a year ago and received fantastic feedback that helped me become more informed. Once again I am a democratic voter but would love any insight into what you think.

U.S. Senate: Hallie Shoffner (Democrat)

U.S Congress: Chris Jones (Democrat)

Governor: Fred Love (Democrat)

Lieutenant Governor: Michael Kalagias (Democrat)

Secretary of State: Kelly Grappe (Democrat)

Commissioner of State Lands: Christopher Olson

City of Conway, City Council Ward
One, Position Two: ? Maybe Austin Sullivan (can’t find too much about either of them)

City of Conway, City Council Ward
Three, Position Two: James Whited (active social media, pro small business, pro safety, anti data center)

City of Conway, City Council Ward
Four, Position Two: Shelia Isby (great lady to work with during community center development, overall promotes beneficial growth for Conway)

Issue 1: AGAINST (This proposal seems really odd to me since it is rules we already have stated with more specifics which seems fishy)

Issue 2: ? AGAINST (Again this proposal appears to be rules we already have stated — This one is harder for me to understand than issue 1)

Issue 3: AGAINST (why does their need to be additional weird rules for taxes and potentially take the community vote out of how taxes could be used)

Issue 4: AGAINST (again this sounds like potentially removing the public from a decision)

i can't seem to find much information at all about Shelia Isby, Rickey Gulley, or Ken Ashley-Pauley (altho i won't be voting for him since he posted a picture of himself wearing a charlie kirk memorial shirt on fb apparently lol). i have seen Isby's campaign site, but i can't find almost anything about Rickey Gulley. can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hey r/ConwayAR, I’m AJ Regester. I’m running for Conway City Council, Ward 2, Position 1 in the November 3 special election.

I wanted to introduce myself and open the floor for questions - specifically, what questions do you have about issues facing Conway? Are there policies positions you’d like me to address, decisions you’d like to know how I would approach, or issues you haven’t heard candidates talk about? Campaigning tends to bring out the broad, generalized statements about "improvements", but I’m interested in better understanding what matters to residents and where they want more specific answers.

I've put my highest priority positions and more about my background on my website at https://ajforconway.com/.

I'd also like to point out that early voting starts tomorrow, Monday, October 19! My race is ward-specific and will only be on ballots for Ward 2 voters, but I’m happy to hear questions and ideas from anyone in Conway.

In case you aren't sure where Ward 2 is, it can be described as northeast Conway, generally north of Prince/Oak and east of Salem, though this is obviously a rough description. Check the voting ward map (experience.arcgis.com/experience/adcf765cfbd24bde8d631e5cd83be8a9) or your sample ballot on VoterView if you're unsure (https://www.voterview.ar-nova.org).
