Republican Sarah Huckabee Sanders has been elected Arkansas governor, becoming the state’s first female governor. The former Trump White House press secretary defeated Democrat Chris Jones.
Sanders briefly left the campaign trail in September after undergoing surgery for thyroid cancer. Her doctor said Sanders was cancer free after the surgery., she scaled back daily televised briefings after repeatedly sparring with reporters who aggressively questioned her.
Sanders embraced Trump’s rhetoric during her bid for governor and adopted many of his favorite targets, including critical race theory and the national news media. But she’s avoided criticizing Hutchinson, even after the former president labeled Hutchinson a RINO — Republican In Name Only — for vetoing an anti-transgender law.Sanders said she would have signed that measure — a ban on gender affirming care for minors — into law.
She’s stopped short of agreeing with Trump that his loss in the 2020 presidential election was stolen, though she’s said the former president has the right to make that claim. Jones, an ordained Baptist minister and nuclear engineer, had presented himself to voters as a more unifying figure than Sanders. He launched his campaign with a video that went viral where he talked about his family’s history in the state.
