The current governor of Arkansas is Mike Huckabee, a Republican. Huckabee, who had been the lieutenant governor, ascended to the governor's office when Governor Jim Guy Tucker, a Democrat, was convicted of felony mail fraud as part of the [Whitewater Scandal]?. This led to a state "Constitutional crisis" when Tucker refused to give up the governor's office for a short period of time, because the Arkansas Constitution does not allow a convicted felon to be governor of the state. Tucker had been Lieutenant Governor under Bill Clinton and had become governor as a result of Clinton's election to the presidency.
