Mahony withdraws from race. No Democrat to challenge Cotton [View all]

There will be no Democrat on the ballot for the United States Senate seat held by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR).

The Democratic Party of Arkansas said Monday that the only candidate who filed for the party’s nomination, Josh Mahony, withdrew two hours after the Tuesday, November 12 filing deadline.

"After exhaustive and careful examination with our legal counsel and our party leaders and without additional information from Mr. Mahony, the Democratic Party of Arkansas will not be able to field a candidate for United States Senate," said Chairman Michael John Gray.

Snip.
