Arkansas Judicial Candidate Removed from Ballot for Making a One-Digit Error on a Form that Wasn’t Even Required

On April 11, an Arkansas state trial court judge held a hearing to decide if Sandra Young Harris should be restored to the May 24 primary ballot as a candidate for judge.

On her political practices pledge, she had written that she is running for the 11th West Judicial Circuit, Division 4, sub-district 11.2. She meant to say she is running for the 11th West Judicial Circuit, Division 4, sub-district 11.1. There is no race in sub-district 11.2. Ironically, she wasn’t even required to fill out that form. See this story. She sued to be placed on the ballot, and a decision is likely this week.
