GOP ticket leads in Arkansas
PPP's newest Arkansas poll finds Republicans leading across the board in the state's key races for this year, led by Tom Cotton with a 43/38 advantage over Mark Pryor and Asa Hutchinson with a 44/38 lead over Mike Ross at the top of the ticket.
Cotton's lead is up slightly from 41/39 on our previous poll. Voters aren't in love with him- 40% see him favorably to 41% with an unfavorable opinion. But Pryor continues to have tough approval ratings, with 36% giving him good marks to 51% who disapprove. Both candidates are receiving 77% of the vote from within their own party but Cotton has a substantial advantage with independents, getting 53% of their vote to 20% for Pryor.

Tom Cotton appears to have regained his footing and has clearly improved as a candidate. If he stays on message and avoids gaffes, he’ll probably win.
RealClear has Cotton up 6 in the new PPP poll. They include leaners. 45-39.

The biggest irony is Pryor (Dems) running ads that Cotton wants to increase the age for Social Security and Medicare, and Cotton (GOP) running ads that Pryor wants to increase the age for Social Security and Medicare.
If Team Cotton can continue tying Obama around Pryor's neck, they might have a good win.
One local station had a debate between Hutchinson and Ross. Neither candidate was overly impressive. Both seemed to be a bit testy and petty at times.
From a PPP poll. Interesting.
No more interviews
Cotton and Hutchinson should win.
I’m surprised to see Hutchinson leading, but with so many undecided, Hutchinson could just win the northwest quadrant and little else.
