Arkansas Results

In regards to the races in Arkansas, everyone that was predicted to win, ended up winning!

Boozman (a Republican) beat out current Senator Blanche Lincoln for a spot in Sentate by a 21.1 margin.

Mike Beebe (a Democrat) beat out Republican Jim Keet (Republican) for Governor by a margin of 30.9.

Both of these spreads are pretty significant, and these results had previously been determined by the polls the past few weeks.

In the Arkansas District 4 Race, Mike Ross (Democrat) beat out Beth Anne Rankin (Democrat) by gaining 58% of the vote, compared to Rankin's 40%.

In the Arkansas District 1 Race, Rick Crawford (Republican) beat out Chad Causey (Democrat) 52% to 43%.

In the Arkansas District 2 Race, Tim Griffin (Republican) beat out Joyce Elliot (Democrat) by gaining 58% of the vote compared to Joyce's 38%.

Once again, these spreads are pretty significant, but were also pre-determined. It is interesting to note that Arkansas picked more Republicans than Democrats. It is also interesting that they picked a Republican senator but a Democratic Governor. We shall see what these people can do for Arkansas in the next two years!
