Arkansas voters have spoken. The 2026 elections for the U.S. House of Representatives concluded with clear outcomes in each of the state’s four congressional districts. Below is a concise rundown of the candidates who appeared on the ballot and the party affiliation of the winners.

District 1 – Northeastern Arkansas

Three candidates sought the seat in Arkansas’ 1st congressional district. Incumbent Republican Rick Crawford faced Democrat Terri Yarborough Green and Libertarian Steve Persons. Crawford secured re‑election, keeping the district in Republican hands—a status it has maintained since the 2010 election cycle.

District 2 – Central Arkansas

The race in the 2nd district was a two‑person contest between incumbent Republican French Hill and Democrat Chris Jones. Hill won a second term, extending the Republican streak that has defined the district since 2013.

District 3 – Northwest Arkansas

Three candidates entered the 3rd district race: Democrat Robb Ryerse, Libertarian Bobby Wilson and incumbent Republican Steve Womack. Womack retained his seat, continuing a Republican presence that dates back to the election of John Paul Hammerschmidt in 1966.

District 4 – Southwest Arkansas

The 4th district featured a two‑candidate contest between Democrat James Russell and Republican Bruce Westerman. Westerman emerged victorious, preserving the Republican hold that has existed in the district since 2013.

All four of Arkansas’ congressional districts have been represented by Republicans since 2013, reflecting the state’s long‑standing conservative voting pattern. The most recent Democratic victory in an Arkansas U.S. House race was achieved by former Representative Mike Ross, who won the 4th district in 2010.

These results underscore the continuity of Republican representation in Arkansas at the federal level, aligning with the state’s historical trend of electing conservative lawmakers to Congress.
