Benton County isn't the only one voting on a wet/dry issue. In fact, Madison County is also looking at a similar issue.

Folks working at the polls Tuesday night said they'd seen more people voting this year than four years ago. And they said they think it's because of this wet/dry issue.

The county has been dry for more than 66 years and a group called "Citizens to Keep Madison County Safe" intended to keep it that way.
   
Many have now become aware of their ad in the local newspaper and a destroyed car that's being towed around the county all in hopes that it will sway voters to go against the wet issue.
