McMath says he will run if funds reach grant level
Former Arkansas Governor Sid McMath declared he would run for governor if a $100,000 campaign fund is raised, stating the idea is not contingent on Governor Faubus’s actions. He urged campaign finance reforms, noting about $60,000 already raised and planning another money-raising event in Fort Smith. Faubus, meanwhile, declined to declare, citing polling and retirement deliberations.
