Arkansas Race October 17

It is almost time for election, and in Arkansas, if the numbers are correct, the races seem to be somewhat decided.

Boozman leads Lincoln 54.7 to 35 in the polls right now. Although Lincoln has raised significantly more money than Boozman ($9, 508, 007 compared to $1, 452, 241) Boozman looks like he might be clinching the senator seat in November.

Currently the status of Arkansas is a Safe GOP, which is good news for Republicans in the Senate.

The race for governor seems to look similar to the Senate race. Beebe leads Keet 51.7 to 37.7 in the polls. Beebe has also raised $1.7 million dollars more than Keet.

In the race for District 1, Crawford leads Causey 46-34 in the polls. Crawford has raised $902, 611 and Causey has raised $1, 333, 623.

In District 2's race, Griffin has a strong lead over Elliot 52-35. Griffin has reported earning $1, 584, 295 while Elliot has earned $857, 172.

In the District 4 race, Ross leads Rankin in the polls 49-31. Ross has also raised significantly more at $1, 989, 317. Rankin has raised $426, 814.

It seems that the state of Arkansas is split between voting Democrat and Republican. Currently Republicans lead in the race for Senate, District 1, and District 2. Democrats lead the race for Governor and District 4. It will be interesting to see what the outcome will be and if these numbers will change in the next few weeks.
