Arkansas Elections VIDEO: "The red tide is coming!" Meet the triumphant Republicans, celebrating the new regime in Arkansas
Posted By David Ramsey on Wed, Nov 5, 2014 at 10:43 AM
I spent last night at the Tom Cotton victory party at the Wyndham Hotel in North Little Rock and the party for Asa Hutchinson and the Republican Party at the Embassy Suites in West Little Rock. I didn't comb my hair very well, but I did talk to various happy Republicans, including Jim Bob Duggar, Republican Party Chairman Doyle Webb, and newly elected Treasurer Dennis Milligan, who reveals whether he's going to celebrate at Krispy Kreme.
Leslie Rutledge ran away from me, as always, as will ever be.
I'll have a few more notes later. Enjoy the video.

Robin Raveendran and Person 9 in the Cranford/Preferred Family Healthcare web
The federal criminal information released as part of former lobbyist Rusty Cranford's June 7 guilty plea on bribery charges describes a Person 9 who worked for the nonprofit healthcare provider Preferred Family Healthcare and was associated with Cranford. The description of Person 9 appears to match Robin Raveendran, the former PFH executive — and former longtime staffer at the state's Department of Human Services — who was arrested Thursday in a separate case, charged in Independence County with two felony counts of Medicaid fraud after an investigation by the state's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.

Trump immigration protest at LR: Quick and fierce
It was not even 24 hours ago that Sophia Said, director of the Interfaith Center; City Director Kathy Webb and others decided to organize a protest today of Donald Trump's executive order that has left people from Muslim countries languishing in airports or unable to come to the US at all — people with visas, green cards,a post-doc graduate student en route to Harvard, Google employees abroad, families. I got the message today before noon; others didn't find out until it was going on. But however folks found out, they turned out in huge numbers, more than thousand men, women and children, on the grounds of the state Capitol to listen to speakers from all faiths and many countries.

ADEQ denies C&H Hog Farm permit
The Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality has denied a new permit for the C&H Hog Farms' concentrated animal feeding operation near Mount Judea (Newton County). This is a big and somewhat surprising victory for critics who have viewed C&H's large-scale pig farm and the pig waste it generates as an existential threat to the Buffalo National River.
