Previewing Arkansas' state House race between Intchauspe and Hall

Arkansas House District 24

Brad Hall and Ryan Intchauspe are running for a seat which will be left vacant by Republican incumbent Charlene Fite, who is not running for reelection.

Ryan Intchauspe (D)

Ryan Intchauspe is a developer of instructional material for the Department of Transportation and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. He served in the U.S. Navy for 16 years until 2020.

I’m a strict constitutionalist,” he said in a video of a speech posted on his Facebook page. “Second Amendment rights (are) part of the fabric of the United States. But I also don’t believe the government has any right to tell a human being what they can and cannot do with their own bodies. I believe in complete autonomy.”

“I would never sign onto a bill or vote for a bill or do anything, regardless of which party is backing it, if it involves taking the rights away from citizens without due process.

Brad Hall (R)

Brad Hall is a rancher and small business owner and a former president of the Crawford County Farm Bureau.

His campaign website says that he will: “protect life and traditional family values,” “continue phasing out the state income tax,” “work to complete I49 and intermodal port,” “fight the woke liberal agenda being forced on us by national Democrats,” “explore bringing a vocational college to our community” and “keep our national forest open for public use.”
