Bruce Westerman
REP, the incumbent. Candidate for U.S. House, District 4, Arkansas, on the November 3, 2026 ballot.
Listed by the FEC candidate master file (cn26): every candidate who filed for 2026, not the state's ballot (the FEC bulk file as downloaded 2026-10-09); FEC candidate H4AR04048. Office, district and party are as the list gives them; the record adds no judgment.
The state's official candidate list could not be read, so this entry comes from the Federal Election Commission's file of every candidate who filed for 2026; it says who filed, not who is on the November ballot.
