Arkansas House Runoffs Finalized as Rogers and Montgomery Win Tight Races

The outcomes leave several November seats uncontested.

Overview

  • Hours after the Tuesday runoffs, Cody Rogers in District 6 and Brent Montgomery in District 52 declared victory as final precincts reported.
  • Hunter Rivett and Kristain Thompson conceded after the secretary of state’s tally showed Rogers leading 1,224 to 1,187 and Montgomery ahead 1,290 to 1,269.
  • The Associated Press also called clear wins Tuesday for Tonya Fletcher in District 46, Mike Bishop in District 5, and Audrey Willis in District 35.
  • Fletcher, Bishop, Rogers, and Montgomery will run unopposed in November, effectively filling those four seats now.
  • These contests follow open-seat departures by incumbents Jon Eubanks, Ron McNair, Harlan Breaux, and Marcus Richmond, setting up notable turnover in local representation.
