That’s despite the Attorney General’s statements that the position should be a four year term.
“The Attorney General, that I love dearly – he gives opinion. Not law,” said Madison County District 5 Supervisor Paul Griffin.
This turnover comes amid Baxter’s push to investigate Madison County’s Economic Development Authority.
