Speaker of the House…Leader of the Pack

ARKANSAS ELECTION LINE: U.S. CONGRESS, DISTRICT 2
- “On the Democratic side, The Arkansas Election Line rates the chase as “Leans Wills.”
Robbie Wills, the current Speaker of the House, has lined up impressive establishment support and has benefited from a ton of earned media exposure as the House leader.
Wills has the broadest base of support in the district, but I don’t see this race avoiding a run-off with 5 Democrats in the field. I expect Wills to lead the ticket. Who will be #2?”

Blake’s Think Tank
The Arkansas Election Line: 2nd Congressional District
“Conventional wisdom suggests that Mr. Wills, with his Faulkner County constituency, his broad support at the state legislature and his moderate political views has the edge. Factor in a sizable fundraising structure (despite not raising funds during the session) and support from Mr. Suskie, and I’m inclined to agree with that wisdom.”

The Tolbert Report
The Arkansas Election Line: U.S. Congress District 2
“”House Speaker Robbie Wills appears to have the edge in the Democratic primary; however with five candidates in the race, it will be difficult for him to avoid a runoff. It is not completely clear which candidate is likely to get the second place slot that would keep them alive until June.”
