What this office does
Justice of the peace (quorum court member). In Arkansas, justices of the peace are the members of the quorum court, the county's legislative body. They adopt the county budget, set the county property tax rate, pass county ordinances and fill certain vacancies. Each justice represents one district, and the county judge presides over the court. This is not a court that hears cases.
This race. The sitting officeholder, Doug Kennedy, is on the ballot.
