Hell is quickly on its way to freezing over. A Panhandle county deciding for themselves whether or not they want to come out of the 1920 and allow their citizens to chose for themselves if they'd like a beer with their dinner. Shocking, I know.
Residents of Childress County are deciding the fate of alcohol sales in the county in a wet/dry election.

The turnout has been very good in early voting, said County Clerk Zona Prince. By noon Thursday, 413 had voted.

"Everybody's interested in this, but I don't know why. Quanah's wet, Estelline's wet and Vernon," Prince said.

If passed, beer, wine and mixed drinks could be sold throughout the county in licensed stores, bars and restaurants.
And, yet another reason for residents in neighboring dry counties to drive to Childress and spend money there. As if they needed another one.
