From the Arkansas Advocate:
Primary runoff elections are underway in three Arkansas House districts where the incumbents did not seek reelection.
Early voting began Tuesday and runoff election day is April 2 in races for House District 35, 63 and 88. Runoffs occur between the two candidates that received the most votes in a race where no candidate garnered more than 50% of the vote.
Jessie McGruder and Raymond Whiteside are the candidates in the Democratic primary for House District 35, which includes portions of Crittenden and Cross counties. The district’s current representative is Marion Democrat Rep. Milton Nicks, Jr., who isn’t seeking reelection after his fifth term in the House.
