Welcome to "Arkies in the Beltway" for the week of Oct. 20, 2024. I'm Alex Thomas, Washington Correspondent for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, with your look at national politics and the Arkansans influencing these conversations.
This week's episode is the third part of our series covering Arkansas' four congressional races in this fall's general election. We're looking at the contest in the Natural State's 3rd Congressional District; Rep. Steve Womack, R-Ark., is seeking an eighth term on Capitol Hill as Democrat Caitlin Draper and Libertarian Bobby Wilson put forward their own challenges to the incumbent.
