Campaign Spending Very High in Arkansas Race
A report of Arkansas campaign finances shows Gov. Winthrop Rockefeller spending over $100,000 on air time and facilities in Little Rock stations, with Lt. Gov. candidate Sterling Cockrill projected to outspend rival Dale Bumpers. Analysts note money levels shape statewide races, while Rockefeller aides discuss wealth as both aid and handicap. Bumpers says costs already exceed $150,000, with Rockefeller potentially surpassing a half million overall, though Rockefeller refuses to disclose personal outlay.
