Outside group attacks Clark Mason in Arkansas Supreme Court race

Outside money continues to pour into judicial races. Today, the Republican State Leadership Committee launched a $250,000 ad buy attacking Supreme Court candidate Clark Mason, who is running against reactionary conservative Shawn Womack.

The ad will run for the next week, with the election set for Tuesday. The RSLC is very committed to referring to Mason as Clark "Ka-Ching" Mason, a nickname that has not gone viral to date. From their press release:

“Clark ‘Ka-Ching’ Mason is the wrong choice for the Arkansas Supreme Court,” said RSLC President Matt Walter. “As a liberal trial lawyer, he made a practice out of profiting off of his injured and suffering clients. According to his own website, he could collect up to 50 percent from a case judgement! The state Supreme Court needs judges prepared to serve the people of Arkansas, not profit off of them.”
