Rogers Mayoral Race: A Battle of Local Leadership
In the upcoming November 5, 2024, general election, voters in Rogers will decide between incumbent Mayor Greg Hines and challenger Benton County District 4 Justice of the Peace Chris Latimer in the highly contested mayoral race. This intense competition reflects the residents’ need for effective governance in the face of Rogers’ rapid growth.
The path to the election day has been marked by notable events. The July filing period added candidates to the ballots for offices such as mayor and city council seats. The addition of a new precinct has also impacted the voting dynamics, with residents south of Territorial Road now casting their votes in Precinct 3 at the 21st Century Bank Event Center.
The civic engagement in Rogers is enhanced by the city’s voting mechanisms, including extended hours at the Rogers Community Room/Fire Station 1 for both early and election day voting. Voters will have various opportunities to cast their ballots, ensuring that their voices are heard.
The diverse range of candidates across various offices underscores the community’s commitment to democratic processes. As election day approaches, residents will thoroughly evaluate the credentials and policies of each candidate, ultimately choosing the leaders who will guide Rogers’ future development.
