Sarah Huckabee Sanders Announces Candidacy For Gov of Arkansas
It s official! Sarah Huckabee Sanders has announced her candidacy for the Governor of Arkansas in 2022. It was rumored that she would run for the office when she left as the White House Press Secretary under President Trump and the President gave his support.
She held her own with the reporters who were constantly rude and tough on Sarah and the Trump administration.
Of course, we have a special connection to Sarah as she grew up in Texarkana and is the daughter of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.
If Sanders is elected, she would be the first female governor of Arkansas. Our current Gov. Asa Hutchinson is term-limited and cannot seek re-election to the office.

A former Michigan congressman is among those receiving a pre-Christmas pardon from President Donald Trump.
Mark Siljander represented southwest Michigan in Washington from 1981 until 1987. At the time, he was a described as a dogmatic social conservative and fundamentalist Christian. While in Washington, he successfully passed legislation that no U.S. funds may be used to lobby for abortion. It’s known as the Siljander Amendment.
But it was his work in the early 2000’s as a lobbyist for a Muslim charity that landed him in federal prison.
Federal prosecutors alleged Siljander had been hired to get the charity removed from a Senate committee’s list of charities suspected of financing terrorism.
