There are three Chrysler dealerships in the Little Rock metro area:
1. Cook Jeep Chrysler
2. Crain Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep
3. Frank Fletcher
Frank Fletcher will remain open while Cook Jeep-Chrysler and Crain CDJ will be forced to close.
Here is the data for the three dealerships since the 2004 Election cycle:
Frank and Chris Fletcher gave $8,000 to Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D), $1,000 to Gov Mike Huckabee (2008 Presidential run), $500 to Marvin Parks (R), and $500 to Mickey Stumbaugh (R). Their dealerships will remain open.
Ethel Cook gave no money to campaigns or groups. Cook Jeep Chrysler will close.
Joy, Larry Sr., and Larry, Jr. (Crain family) gave $4,600 to Sen. McCain (2008 Presidential run), $4,600 to Gov. Mike Huckabee (2008 Run), $1,000 to President George W. Bush (2004 Run), $1,500 to NADA, $250 to Marvin Parks (R), and $207 to the Arkansas Democratic Party.
The Cook dealership is 9 miles away from the Fletcher dealership. The Crain dealership is 15 miles away from Fletcher.
This is fun! Here's my research from another group, all of which will remain open.
