AP Race Call: Donald Trump wins Arkansas
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Former President Donald Trump secured Arkansas six electoral votes on Tuesday, winning the heavily Republican state for the third presidential election in a row. Trump had the backing of the states top Republican figures, including Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Sanders, who had served as Trumps White House press secretary, endorsed the former presidents bid and campaigned for him. Former Gov. Asa Hutchinson ran unsuccessfully for the GOP nomination and declined to endorse Trumps reelection. Democrats have not won a presidential election in Arkansas since 1996, when native son Bill Clinton won reelection. The Associated Press declared Trump the winner at 8:30 p.m. EST.
