Josh Price, former Pulaski County election commissioner, will be seeking the Democratic nomination for Arkansas secretary of state in 2022.
Price stated that protecting voting rights as the reason for launching his campaign.
“Out of touch politicians are making it harder for people to vote. That’s just not right. Rural voters, seniors, single mothers, working-class Arkansans - they’re all facing new hurdles to exercising their American right to vote,” Price said.
As election commissioner for Pulaski County, Price oversaw the election for Arkansas’ largest county. During his tenure, Price opened additional early voting locations, replaced voting machines that were up to 20 years old and trained workers during the pandemic. Price was the first Asian-American to serve in this position.
