Forgot About Arkansas

Looks like my donation to Halter through ActBlue (like many, many, many of us netroot liberals) may have helped him force Lincoln into a run-off since she didn't get more than 50% of the vote. I want her sorry Blue Dog ass out of congress.

Already one of the most vulnerable incumbents seeking re-election this year, Lincoln will run against Halter alone in a June 8 runoff.

Lincoln, 49, portrayed herself as a centrist in her re-election fight. But she faced anger from both the left and right, particularly over the health care debate. When Halter joined the race in March, he was embraced by groups on the left that had grown frustrated with Lincoln's positions on issues such as health care and trade.
