A new poll shows Tom Cotton leading Hallie Shoffner by 16 points in Arkansas. The race still looks strongly Republican, but Cotton is running below recent GOP margins. Shoffner is the Democratic nominee and will challenge Cotton in November. The polling keeps Republicans favored, but the smaller-than-usual margin may slightly narrow confidence in a GOP win. Undecided voters leave some room for movement, though the race still looks Republican-leaning.
