The Green Party of Arkansas is the state party organization for Arkansas of the Green Party of the United States.
With the November 2008 election of Richard Carroll as representative for the 39th District (Little Rock) in the Arkansas House of Representatives, the Arkansas Green Party gained its first ever state representative in the state's history. Later, former Democratic representative Fred Smith would be elected to the Arkansas House in 2012 on the Green Party line.[3]
Greens achieved their first electoral victory in Arkansas in 1992 when Stephan Miller was elected Alderman for Fayetteville, Ward 1.[4] He was joined on the City Council in 1996 by Randy Zurcher when he was elected to represent Fayetteville, Ward 2.[5]
