Arkansas voters will head to the polls on November 3, 2026, for the General Election. While voters will decide contests ranging from federal and statewide offices to local races, many legislative seats have already been effectively decided because only one candidate qualified for the general election ballot.
Three statewide constitutional officers are also unopposed. The races for Attorney General, Auditor, and Treasurer will each feature only one candidate in November.
In the Arkansas General Assembly, 75 of the 117 legislative seats up for election are uncontested, including 13 State Senate seats and 62 State House seats. Each of those races will have only one candidate on the General Election ballot.
Candidates are not the only decisions Arkansas voters will make this November. The ballot will also include three proposed constitutional amendments and one statewide bond issue, giving voters several significant statewide measures to consider.

Statewide Ballot Issues and Bond Proposal
In addition to electing candidates, Arkansas voters will decide four statewide measures on the November 3 ballot. Three are proposed constitutional amendments referred by the Arkansas General Assembly, and one is a statewide general obligation bond proposal.
Creation of Economic Development Districts Amendment – Would authorize the General Assembly to create economic development programs, including Economic Development Districts, and permit loans and grants of public funds for economic development purposes.
Citizenship Voting Requirement Amendment – Would amend the Arkansas Constitution to specify that only citizens of the United States may vote in elections held in Arkansas.
Right to Keep and Bear Arms Amendment – Would amend the Arkansas Constitution to state that the right to keep and bear arms is “a natural, fundamental, and individual right that shall not be infringed.”
Arkansas Natural Resources Commission Bond Measure – Would authorize the Arkansas Natural Resources Commission to issue up to $500 million in general obligation bonds to finance water-related infrastructure projects, including water treatment and distribution, wastewater systems, pollution control, drainage, irrigation, flood control, and wetlands and aquatic resources infrastructure. A “Yes” vote would authorize the bonds, while a “No” vote would reject the bond authorization.
