Recounts

Automatic recount: none confirmed in the sources read.

Requested recount: A candidate may petition for one recount, at the candidate's cost, within 2 days after the county board declares preliminary results. If outstanding overseas and provisional ballots could change the outcome, the petition is due before the board certifies or by noon on the 7th day after the election (Nov 10). Arkansas Code § 7-5-319, Recount

Not confirmed here: statewide certification, ballot cure deadline. A missing item means it was not verified, not that no rule exists.

Compiled Nov 5, 2026 from state election offices, calendars and statutes, read through search excerpts of those official pages rather than page by page; each item links its source. Deadlines can move by court order or holiday rules; the state election office is the final word.

FEC bulk data read November 4, 2026. Campaign totals come from each filing's own FEC summary through its latest processed report. Outside spending is independent expenditures itemized in committee reports in the FEC bulk files, primaries included; late 24- and 48-hour reports, party coordinated spending, communication costs and groups that do not report to the FEC are not included. Outside spending is, by law, made without coordinating with the candidate, and it is not the candidate's money. A contribution or expenditure is not evidence of a vote, favor or wrongdoing.
