Watchdog group to push third Gulfport courthouse vote
A hastily formed Harrison County watchdog committee plans to file petitions Friday with the chancery clerk seeking a third election on a roughly $4 million courthouse bond. The group led by Caire and Gulfport insurer Butler wants 2 000 registered voters to back a new vote, challenging land cost and site concerns while stressing prudent, economically feasible standards for a modern facility. The filing will be reviewed for voter confirmation before a new election date is set, with signatures continuing toward a July 5 deadline.

Butler denied ties to any signature gathering organization but said he may go to the courthouse when filing occurs. He believed totals could exceed 2,500, and he accused supervisors of trying to bypass voter rights by issuing bonds without a third election. Supervisors denied the claim.
