Election results
Between an assassination attempt on a former president's life to the current president dropping out of the race completely, many consider this year's presidential election especially consequential.
Shortly after the polls closed at 7:30 p.m., CBS News reported that former President Donald Trump was projected to win in Arkansas for the third election in a row.
Here's how Arkansas is voting in the presidential election this year.
U.S. House of Representatives
District 3
The Associated Press has projected that U.S. Rep. Steve Womack has beat out his Democratic and Libertarian opponents for Arkansas's 3rd Congressional District seat. This will be Womack's 8th term in Congress.
"I'm beyond grateful to the voters of the 3rd District of Arkansas for giving me the trust and confidence to go back to Washington," Womack said to 5NEWS.
Womack was going up against Democratic candidate Caitlin Draper and Libertarian candidate Bobby Wilson. Once polls closed at 7:30 p.m. in Arkansas, results from voters in parts of Sebastian, Benton, Washington, Madison, and Crawford counties revealed that Womack was favored to win reelection yet again.
District 4
U.S. Rep. Bruce Westerman is projected to win Arkansas's 4th Congressional District seat over Democratic candidate Risie Howard, according to the Associated Press.
Westerman of Hot Springs has represented Arkansas's 4th Congressional District since 2015. He serves on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and is the chairman of the Natural Resources Committee. Westerman previously served as Arkansas's first Republican House Majority Leader in the Arkansas General Assembly between 2013 and 2014.
Arkansas's 4th Congressional District covers parts of Sebastian, Scott, Franklin, Johnson, and Logan counties.
