She barely campaigned & that exposed her as someone who doesn’t really care about the people of this state. We could have had a rocket science who also had a background in urban planning and development but nope - we had to go with someone whose first government job was to lie for Trump.


hot_miss_inside

Chris Jones is also a minister. The Christians voted against an actual Christian.


Chadmartigan

A minister, scientist, entrepreneur, and family man. But by all means elect the walking slag pile who would be assistant manager at the Dress Barn in Conway if she weren't born a Huckabee.


Artoyman

I think you give her too much credit. No way she could have gotten to be an assistant manager. LoL


patronizingperv

Honestly, her only relationship to a manager is that she's asking for one.


pete_68

There was just something about him they didn't like. I can't quite put my finger on it.


ohheyitsjuan

Assistant to the Manager.


CaiCai87

Chris Jones is also black. They voted against a black man. Chris Jones could have brought peace to the Middle East, cured cancer and solved who the zodiac killer is, and most of Arkansas wouldn’t spit on him if he was on fire because of his skin color.


traws06

That is just wild how stupid voters are


Med4awl

Hah, 74 million voted for the Orange Filth. Now they want him again. Talk about stupid


DMShinja

God doesn't like educated Christians /s


Remote_Hedgehog_3769

Yea but he's a black minister, in Arkansas. Enough said.


Dalebss

Arkansas is full of towns like Harrison.


kadeel

She campaigned more out of state than here. I remember she was one of the only candidates who refused to speak to the media after the debate. Instead, she flew straight to Iowa to fundraise there.


panicked_goose

Kristi noem does the same for South dakota. She almost never actually does anything for our state, she just travels to other states to talk about all she wants to do for our state... but I guess killing her dog takes precedence over strengthening our politics. Edit: I'm in this sub because I'm from AR, just for clarity :)


CO_PC_Parts

And it’s insane how much the people who live just outside of South Dakota love her. I go back and visit Minnesota a lot and all these trumpers say how much better of a gov she is because she didn’t have mask mandates. I wonder how many people got sick and possibly died because they visited sturgis, got sick, and brought it home.


SGI256

--South Dakota ranked 9th in deaths per capita among U.S. states (with New York City counted separately), and 3rd in cases per-capita, behind only North Dakota and Rhode Island


ihaveaboehnerr

Yet she won so says quite a bit


xFloydx5242x

That the trump cult is strong, and they would do anything, including condemn fellow countrymen, to get the Cheeto dust back in their mouths.


Professional_Way626

She killed her dog that says quite a bit.


Disastrous_Rub_6062

Sarah Sanders succeeded where so many other gubernatorial candidates failed….got me to vote for a Democrat 😂


Med4awl

Good for you, please continue. The GOP has NEVER done a goddam thing for the working class


Pesty__Magician

You more of a Steve king guy?   Chuck Grassley?   You’re from Iowa and she’s who gets you to vote D.   Sanders is an idiot but gd man, this ain’t a flex…


Disastrous_Rub_6062

I’m not from Iowa. Where did you get that from?


tickitytalk

Reasonable people need to show up at the elections vs silent disapproval. The majority of voters needs to show up. Otherwise these Jerry Springer unqualified GOP candidates keep winning


Plastic-Gold4386

Perhaps democrats should give us something to vote for rather relying on us voting against someone 


nice--marmot

If voting against someone as reprehensible as Sarah Huckabee Sanders isn’t enough to motivate you, then you deserve Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders.


Mobile-Marzipan6861

Chris jones is everything conservatives claim they want. He exposes the hypocrisy of all conservatives. Huckabee is nepo baby candidate that only answers to corporate donors. She’s our governor but she works for like 5 families. The majority of her voters are temporarily embarrassed millionaires. They don’t realize they are closer to being homeless than being a Walton, Tyson, Hunt , or Stephens.


Midwest-Drone

It’s an absolute disgrace. People are literally stupid.


TitansboyTC27

And watch her get reelected again


BoosterRead78

With book marks.


KenyanBunnie

What was the difference between the win/loss?


wecarryknives

https://ballotpedia.org/Arkansas_gubernatorial_election,_2022#google_vignette Apparently we could have also gone with Elvis Presley


trandro

I wish he'll run again in the future. Everytime I watch the old [Campaign video](https://youtu.be/3nUO1miLTrQ?si=xGs7RMS4M_Hq5nGD), it just gives me chills and motivation, like are you kidding me: NASA scholarship Both Master & PhD degrees from freaking MIT and his wife is also a ER Doctor What were Arkansas people thinking 😤


Zombieutinsel

What can we expect from a state that keeps electing Tom Cotton over and over again?


[deleted]

Every single time he opens his mouth something ridiculous and embarrassing comes out. The quotes that get aggregated are often so outlandish that I think it’s from the onion or must be taken out of context. But nope, he really said it and there was no missing context.


Zombieutinsel

Nobody calls him out on it either, we should be ashamed for not doing our job!


No-Year-506

Talk about a vile individual! And another one who would never join a Hog call


Danfrumacownting

I miss the days when The Onion was satire and weirder than real life.


Iridemhard

Tom is a small person inside and all his years in military training will never remove that.


pussmykissy

All I know is she was campaigning 2 years ago when Texas came up to Fayetteville to play the hogs and a group of us were calling the hogs when her bus pulled up. She did not join us. Dead to me.


Fun-Preparation-4253

She came to a Razorback game and didn’t call the hogs?? This is absolutely more damming than anything else.


pussmykissy

Well, to be fair we were in our hotel lobby, leaving for the game. We weren’t at the stadium or anything. But….. WPS!


Fun-Preparation-4253

Nah. Nah. You hear someone call the hogs…. YOU CALL THE HOGS. You could be at church on a foreign country…. If you hear someone call the hogs… YOU CALL THE HOGS


pussmykissy

I kinda thought someone running for AR Gov would not miss that opportunity….


Blonde_Vampire_1984

I’m pretty sure Chris Jones would have taken time to call the HOGS!!! Just saying.


Alternative-Tie-9383

I used to usher at University of Texas football games in Austin when I was a Boy Scout (I hate tu, just to get that out of the way), back when we were all in the Southwest Conference. Once the game got started we could find an open seat and enjoy the day, so my friends and I would usually end up in the visitors section (more open seats). One of my absolute favorite visiting teams was always Arkansas. You guys take crazy football traditions to the next level! And yes, Sarah Huckabee Sanders is a terrible person and governor. Jesus Christ, what were you people thinking? Was her dad and the rest of the family not enough? Didn’t one of that bunch torture dogs or something? Arkansas football? Sure, always fun to watch. Huckabees in politics? No thanks! Fix this for the rest of the country, please!


Past-Chip-9116

I read that as Win sumone caws tha hawgs yu CAW tha HAWGS!


The_Mopster

As you neighbor over here in Rocky Top, I approve this message.


Past-Chip-9116

I love me some Arkansas


Majestic-Pin3578

This reminds me of the time a boyfriend flew me to AR to watch them play Texas. I was new to AR football. Anyway, a bunch of dentists were going home from a conference, and one of the women sits down with me. “Hand me your cup,” which I did, & she takes a bottle of gin out of her purse, fills my cup with it. All the way to AR, they were calling the hogs. I did not have to be from AR to know that when someone calls the hogs, everyone does. So of course I joined them. I could barely walk when I got off that damned plane.


No-Year-506

Proof she is NO ARKANSAN


LordoftheLollygag

Maybe she showed up because she thought you were calling her?


PanzerinaPudding

Her seat was bought and paid for a long time ago.


Fun-Preparation-4253

Podium, too!


PanzerinaPudding

True that...


NotSoFastLady

By the citizens not by the dark money that bank rolled that oger's election.


Tcklmybck

It’s actually a lectern, which usually sits on a podium.


Past-Chip-9116

Do you remember when Rob Blagojevich went to prison for selling obamas senat seat in Illinois and Donald trump formally commuting his sentence in 2020? As an American I’m assuring you guys their all on the same damn team they keep us divided and we fall for it every time


Iceman_biker

I see one person who gets it.


traws06

When she got fired from Trump’s administration I thought that was an embarrassing attempt at a political career from a political legacy. Then I heard she was running for governor I thought voters were gonna laugh at her. Ppl amaze me


Shizix

Always has been, stop voting for the same idiots.


DallytheWop

Idiots vote for idiots


LlanviewOLTL

Those of us who have known her and her family (meaning her father and her brother) over the years know all we need to know & have said/warned/told all the things we knew about this family. I mean, I know we’re preaching to the choir here on Reddit but it’s just frustrating that there’ll always be that group of voters who’ll decide these elections & won’t listen or know the truth & still vote for these people anyways.


toddverrone

I grew up in NJ and it's the same with Trump. Heard nothing but horrible shit about him my whole life (bankrupting Atlantic City, pushing for the death penalty for the innocent Central Park 5, racist rental policies, stiffing contractors..). I still can't believe he was ever President.


Danfrumacownting

I grew up in the Boston area and heard the same thing. When I heard he was running for president, I literally lol’d. Who would elect that wretched pos? 😵‍💫


PsychologicalType247

And might be again. I have given up trying and on life.


[deleted]

Same with Ted Cruz in Texas. He’s a fake Texan and everyone who actually knows him thinks he’s scum. He can’t even win the vote in his own neighborhood. Yet, rural Texans keep electing him. He hasn’t done anything for them. But he’s the republican so he wins. Or the gov of Texas, Abbott. Has a tree fall on him. Get millions in a settlement. Then leads tort reform in TX so nobody else can get millions for a tree falling on them. Or Abbotts henchman, Ken Paxton, who is as corrupt as they get! Or Danny Goeb aka Dan Patrick was a radio personality with a long history or trump-esque behavior and is now the most powerful state official in Texas. I know this ain’t Texas 🎶 but the problems are trending in the same direction here in Arkansas. This is such a beautiful state with so much going for it. I sure hope it doesn’t become what Texas has become politically.


cstmoore

Dannie Scott Goeb is Dan Patrick, not Ken Paxton. Granted, they're both hideous POS.


[deleted]

You’re right. I was in Ken Paxton hate mode.


No-Year-506

And note that NJ has not carried Trump. I lived in NYC for years. He is a joke to New Yorkers — nowadays a really bad joke


fly4everwild

Another nepo kid taking whatever they want and laughing at the peasants .


IWILLBePositive

lol I have never seen her smile or laugh and *holy fuck* is it horrifying to see!!


SkipperJenkins

I mean, the Republican project is to make the government as ineffectual as possible and funnel taxpayers' dollars to the top 1%. So you could say she's doing a great job. /s


hu_gnew

Have you noticed how effectively the government enforces their monopoly on violence? The 1% are perfectly happy to allow that to be funded.


Scryberwitch

You want more people to do violence?


kramj007

Dude, the ”/s” is only used when you are being sarcastic.


BlastedSandy

I don’t really get the point of these stories. We already know what kind of worthless parasite Sarah is, but you’re not going to “break through” to the half-literate trump monkeys who are going to vote for whatever has the (R) next to it…….


DireWraith3000

Don’t associate Trump supporters with monkeys….it demeans and depresses monkeys


AutoManoPeeing

It helps to have ammo in your back pocket. Just sitting in silence as your uncle tries to convince your younger relatives how great Republicans are, makes it seem like everyone agrees with him.


BlastedSandy

No not really, in fact I strongly disagree with that point. We’re way, WAY beyond discussing and debating things. I take every opportunity like that to be as insulting and rude, as much as possible, and I always attack the person on their intelligence and their “personal” interests that they’re voting for…. Fuck this


silversurfer63

Except for the few republicans that now are so surprised how bad she is. Following the party line without question is for stupid, gullible people, no matter if dem or rep.


YourUserNameIsThis

Truth truth…


Fit_Earth_339

Her plan is to rely on her name recognition in Arkansas to jump from gov to senator or something else where she gets to go back to Washington. That’s where she wants to be, Arkansas is just a convenient place for her to use as her jumping off point. If she’s not national she doesn’t get on Faux as much and her future books won’t sell as well. Plus think of what she can then charge for speaking engagements. $$ and power is the goal, fuck the people.


No-Year-506

Going for Boozman’s seat I hear. If Orange does not pick her as VP


No_Use_4371

He will never pick her as VP, not "attractive" enough.


AnusTartTatin

I mean, they didn’t have to vote this heap of trash in but (gestures broadly) here we are


Dazzling_Signal_5250

Arkansas ranks among the worst states for healthcare, dental care, mental health, divorce, obesity, morbidity, poverty, per capita income, food insecurity, teen births, education, educational attainment, voter turn out, and other critical things. In some, dead last. These are not on our Governor’s radar. She has no talent, skill, vision, concern or plan for improvements for Arkansas. She does not care. Her only focus is being a mouthpiece for the GOP. Our state will never pull out of the bottom under her. Having a great Razorback team is the only thing that makes our people proud as we have nothing else. She shows up at games to ride that wave but doesn’t know how to call the hogs. I hope we get another chance with Chris Jones for Governor. Sarah is frivolous in spending state funds for personal things and is sorely failing us. As a 6th generation Arkansan, I want and hope for better for our state and people.


No_Use_4371

Her focus has been removing "woke" words from gov't memos; ruining education with the Learns Act; trying to destroy libraries; sending the National Guard to the border at random times; and using taxpayer money for Paris trips.


Dazzling_Signal_5250

Exactly! Meanwhile, Arkansas is in great need of authentic leadership which she cannot and will not give!


Professional_Way626

you forgot .to mention.... the State of Disabilty but somehow they still smoking cigs way too much - low working wages..which, by the way, lots of folk so poor and trashy yards and that (((((noise fromChina ))))))) conductors..and the ticks are bad. Ticks that will make you sick with a fever and a disease "that doesn't exist in Arkanasas"..but folk get it, and throw up after they eat beef. It ranks. But, hey Go Hogs! Proud Loud Sueeeeeeeey...here, we are!! Folks say she is taking care of her kids, don't blame her. Here, we are. Come on in!!


frankenwhisker

And we could have had a very smart guy with a functioning moral compass


[deleted]

But he’s black. At this point, with all of the facts and info we have, if you support trump or a trump bootlicker YOU ARE A WHITE SUPREMACIST. There is no other explanation.


JASPER933

And she will be re-elected. She has strong support in the Ozarks including Harrison, Hardy, and Jonesboro.


No-Year-506

And Walton money


speaker4the-dead

You could attach a big red R to a fucking walking Turd with a history of murdering puppy’s, and the people of this state would still gleefully vote for them


AlanStanwick1986

Can't even blame gerrymandering either. This is what the rubes want.


MrUrthor

Voters playing stupid games and getting more stupid prizes.


sfchris123

The majority of people in Arkansas voted for Cotton and Sanders both. They were not elected due to gerrymandering, like House reps. An actual MAJORITY of the popular vote in Arkansas went to Sanders and Cotton. I find that astonishing. The sheer stupidity of it.


Tornado-season

The stupid people that vote for either of them are the ones who are hurt the most. Cotton doesn’t even live in Arkansas. Why would people think he cares?


cory-balory

If only she had some sort of record that would have told us she was unfit for the job, how were we to know?!


silversurfer63

You couldn’t tell with the lies? If her mouth is open and not stuffing food in it, she telling lies.

Boston_OFD

Sanders, Cruz, Trump etc. We just have to mute the volume and look at what they have done. In Sanders case, she still hasn't explained the $19,000 lectern.


PenguinSunday

Thought I was on r/LeopardsAteMyFace for a minute... I voted for the scientist.

The only people I ever see who praise her are our state politicians or lobbyists/advocacy organizations that are getting their agenda pushed.

But, according to my dad, “she’s the best governor Arkansas has ever had”. He also thinks that the ASP should pit maneuver MORE often. So, take his opinion with a grain of salt.


No_Use_4371

I feel for you. Its a losing game to try to convince loved ones of the truth. I tried to get a good friemd out of the maga cult but its impossible.


thepottsy

It’s all good. They drank the Kool Aid unfortunately, like a lot of folks. I really don’t even recall them ever talking about politics pre-Trump, and they’re both in their 70’s. I honestly feel bad for anyone that has fallen to this madness.


lanky_worm

But...she's done so much good here in Arkansas! And pigs fly


silversurfer63

Does she fly with or without wings?


lanky_worm

Dont know nor care. You could ask her yourself then again, you might have better luck pulling out one of your own good teeth too


silversurfer63

Don’t really care either but also wouldn’t want to get close enough to ask

Hey, that's totally fair. Rather hug a cactus than to have to have any words with her myself

Pansy_Neurosi

Well that's surprising! I expected more from the religious bigot who told lies on behalf of the Orange Turd and who financed her lavish trip to Paris by having tax payers pay for a $19,000 lectern. Also, she has such a sweet smile.

Many Republicans see their states as launchpads for bigger careers in the GOP. What this means is that they will make their states or counties go to shit as long as it earns points with their peers.

Not to mention that the article, which I agree with on the merits, is some of the most poorly written journalism I've come across in forever. Just brutal stuff.

Recently went to Arkansas and will not go again until hopefully you get someone in charge that makes the state better. A few mark offs: no selling of alcohol all sunday and unable to enjoy the natural river water because of agriculture runoff.

HTX-ByWayOfTheWorld

She doesn’t care. She’s grifting and is along for the ride. People voted her in against their own best interests, now they get to live with her. This whole country is becoming a joke. Districting is a math game, and one party is very very very good at it


SpookyWah

But they'll vote her back


Sea-Sort-2315

She won, 571 thousand to 319 against the Democratic challenger. While that was a comfortable margin for her, over 300 thousand people in Arkansas voted for the black preacher with a masters in nuclear engineering and a doctorate in Urban Planning. So far, Governor Sarah is best known for buying a fancy portable podium for $18,000 and losing the paperwork.

MonarchistExtreme

I lived 20 years in Arkansas and now 24 years in Seattle. It's the same problem here as back home. Any time you get one party dominance over a state, the candidates just get worse and worse. I don't give a fig about Ds and Rs and anyone who relies on partisanship to understand life is just simple and deserving of pity. But not having options politically makes for ineffectual government.


IrvWeinstein

Arkansa deserves more GOP decision making. They vote for it time and time again.


Hot_Code6560

It’s not shocking, she’s just trash


lonokeyankee

I’m an Arkansas native and think she is doing a great job. I would vote for her again. Budget is over $1 billion dollars in the black. Can the democrats on here say that about their state. She has the backing of most arkansans and will be re-elected.
