So we moved to Arkansas about 6 weeks ago and have discovered that this supposedly conservative state still has dry counties. Seems the polar opposite of keeping the government from trying to tell citizens what they can and cannot do. Who in these counties dictates whether it will be dry or not? Prohibition was over almost 100 years ago. Come on Arkansas, get with the times!
We still have dry counties here in Kentucky. Kentucky has a hodge-podge of dry, wet, and moist counties. Out of 120 counties I believe there are 10 or so that are completely dry meaning there is no alcohol legally sold within the county's borders. I believe there are 48 counties that are "moist" meaning that there is a city or particular voting precinct with a golf course or winery that allows the sale of alcohol, but outside of the city or that special area then its dry territory. So nearly half of Kentucky's counties are dry, but cities or a precinct with a golf course or winery has held an election to either also alcohol by the drink, or package sells.
