DPA Chair in New Role & Stepping Down as Party Chair

Last night, DPA Chair Michael John Gray informed both the State Party Executive Committee and the State Committee of his exciting personal news to pursue a new adventure in Arkansas politics. 
 
He will remain in his role as chair until September 1 and at that time action will begin as the party works to elect a new chair while continuing in the work we all do day in and day out to support Democrats in Arkansas. Working together is KEY throughout this process.
