Current official Stone County government page; under "General Election Candidates" it lists the U.S. Senate candidates and their parties. It was retrieved independently through web research on 2026-10-25, as reported by the project owner. This repository's CLI could not retrieve it (the TLS handshake with stonecountyar.gov failed), so the CLI did not re-read its text. A web-archive copy exists only from May 2025 and is not evidence for the November 2026 roster. A county page is not a statewide certification.

Notice of Election published October 1, 2026, identified by the project owner as the Cross County Board of Election Commissioners' notice. This repository's CLI retrieved the page on 2026-10-25, and its Ballot Races list shows the same U.S. Senate candidates with D/R/L party labels. The issuing board is not named in the retrieved page text. Independent 2026 corroboration of the roster.

Lists Tom Cotton (R-AR) as the current Class II senator for Arkansas, matching the repository Congress snapshot (Bioguide C001095). Seat status compares this officeholder with the official candidate record.
Race cards picture one Democratic and one Republican nominee, at equal size, when the official general-election ballot list includes exactly one of each; they appear in the official statewide ballot order where a source publishes one, and otherwise in surname order. Other contests (no Democratic or Republican nominee, top-four registration labels, an unverified ballot listing or no verified roster) picture the first four ballot candidates by surname. Every other ballot candidate is named on the card, and this page lists everyone in the reviewed record, including write-ins and withdrawn or removed candidates. No candidate is shown or omitted on judgments of competitiveness, and the display does not predict results.
