Early voting continues

Pulaski County Election Commission Chairman Kent Walker reports that there have been over 5,000 early votes in the county as of this afternoon. Early voting continues tomorrow: you can find the site nearest you here. On Monday the only early voting location will be the Pulaski County courthouse.

CDI executive missing

Some two to three dozen officers are searching for John W. Glasgow, CFO and vice president of CDI Inc., on Petit Jean Mountain. Glasgow, 45, was reported missing to Little Rock police Tuesday.

Glasgow's Volvo was found parked, unlocked, at Mather Lodge. His laptop was in the back seat, Conway County sheriff's office spokesman Sonny Stover says. Stover said State Parks rangers are leading the search, assisted by Conway deputies and Franklin County emergency personnel.

Glasgow's wife, Melinda, who reported her husband missing, told police a .22 rifle was missing from their Little Rock home.

Stover said the search, concentrated around the lodge and trails in the State Park, will continue until dark. It's raining and sleeting on the mountain.

Bob Woodruff at Clinton School

Those grieving over Tom DeLay's Clinton School cancellation tonight may find consolation in a visit by Bob Woodruff next Friday evening. The ABC news anchor will presumably talk about his experience reporting from Iraq and his long recovery from the serious brain injury he suffered there.

Huck calls home UPDATE

Mike Huckabee will make a pit stop in Northwest Arkansas at 4 tomorrow in between trips to Oklahoma and Missouri. No other details -- city, location, etc. -- except that the appearance is billed as a "Meet Mike Huckabee" rally. I imagine most people up there are pretty familiar already.

UPDATE: He'll swoop into the Tyson Hangar at the XNA airport in Bentonville. Don't expect him to stray too far from the tarmac: he has a 7 p.m. event in Springfield, MO.

The San Francisco treat

The Huckster spoke just down the street from me in San Francisco today. I couldn't get away. But KGO has him.

Why is he staying in the race? "Because I still think I can win."

Clinton IS coming UPDATE

Bill, we mean. The campaign confirms. No details yet. Rep. Steve Harrelson said he'll be in Texarkana. Don't know if that means Hot Springs is out or in addition to.

UPDATE: UAPB at 1 p.m. and Texarkana at 2:15. No Hot Springs for Clinton, though apparently Dustin McDaniel and other Clinton supporters will have an event there. Details on jump.
