Arkansas Attorney General Dustin McDaniel has certified a ballot title for a proposed constitutional amendment that would repeal all state taxes and replace them with a single flat sales-tax effective July 1, 2012, the ADG reports. The General Assembly would determine the tax rate. McDaniel has only cleared the way for supporters to gather the needed 77,468 signatures from registered voters to get the amendment on the ballot on November 2. The Arkansas Progressive Group, a misnamed conservative organization, is pushing the proposal.

The Arkansas Times is already opposed to it as a regressive tax. For more see here.
