CONWAY — Carroll County House District 2 incumbent Anita Burroughs (D-Bartlett) and her Republican challenger Jennifer LePla of Sandwich took part in a SUN-TV interview last week. They also agreed to disagree on several topics, leading to a spirited debate.
District 2 covers Albany, Bartlett, Chatham, Hales Location, Hart’s Location, Jackson and Sandwich, and has two open seats. Also running in the district are Adam Heard (D-Sandwich) and Erlon Jones (R-Chatham), who sat for a separate TV interview.
