balance in how we use politics to help people," said the state senator.

Wills says his campaign's strategy "is to continue talking about getting the economy back on track," along with other issues.

Pundits had their opinions going into the 2nd Congressional District race, but Elliot says her goal is to win and she's glad to have another chance.

The 2nd Congressional seat opened after Congressman Vic Snyder announced his retirement in January.

If Elliot takes the Democratic nomination and goes on to win the general election, it will be the first time an African-American has been elected to congress in Arkansas, at least, since the 1870s.

Chad Causey and Tim Wooldridge will also be in a run-off about three weeks from now, in the race for Arkansas' 1st Congressional District seat. They are both vying for the democratic ticket.

Whoever wins the run-off will face Republican Rick Crawford in the general election. He handily defeated Princella Smith Tuesday, with 73 percent of the votes.

In the district races, Cecile Bledsoe and Steve Womack will be in a run-off in the 3rd District, hoping to make it onto the Republican ticket.

They will face David Whitaker, the only Democrat running for the office.

Mike Ross was the only Democrat running in the District 4 races. In November, he will face Republican Beth Anne Rankin, who defeated Glenn Gallas.
