If she is as good as she was as a press secretary, Arkansas is in deep trouble.

So Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Kari Lake are proving that media savvy candidates able to articulate and deliver strong messaging are strong candidates.

I FEEL SORRY FOR ARKANSAS FOR THE BAD CRAP COMING THEIR WAY

And Arkansas just keeps falling THROUGH the floor! I swear, every Southern state is in the running to be the next/new Mississippi!

[jeffreyhinman]

She was my favorite press secretary. She would roast everyone.

Congratulations, Sarah. You deserve this. I don't live in your state but I've watched you since you were President Trump's press liaison. Good luck with your term and God bless you and your family.

Nothing as great as nepotism and nothing to be more proud of!!

[madmax]

Did she become governor as obligation or aspiration? Chris Jones was the better choice all along. The people of Arkansas picked dumbed down over intelligence.

[cardslifer]

she seems like she'd be a kind person in real life tbh. much more than you can say about most current politicians. for whatever that is worth.
