Paul White is an independent candidate this year for State Senate in Stone County, Arkansas. His petition is due on May 1. The district has an incumbent Republican who is running for re-election this year. According to this story, the Republican County Committee has asked that its own members who signed the White petition should either rescind their signatures, or resign from the committee. Five members of the committee have refused to rescind their signatures and have now resigned. Thanks to Charles Foster for the link.
Good for those members that show courage!
