Glenn Gallas Endorsement of Beth Anne Rankin

HOT SPRINGS VILLAGE, AR -- Hot Springs businessman and TEA Party leader Glenn Gallas endorsed Beth Anne Rankin of Magnolia Tuesday in the race for Congress from the Fourth Congressional District.

Rankin and Gallas faced each other in the Republican primary election last month. Rankin won her party’s nomination and will face incumbent Mike Ross in the Nov. 2 General Election. Gallas made the endorsement of Rankin during a meeting for the Hot Springs Village Republican Committee.

Rankin said she appreciated Gallas’ efforts to bring conservative voters together by supporting her.

Gallas said he and Rankin never personally attacked each other during the primary. Instead, they presented their conservative ideas and let the voters decide.

“Now, I’m asking all of my supporters to support her,” Gallas said.

He said voters need to retire Ross from Congress and replace him with Rankin, who is a true conservative.

“The important thing is to get Mike Ross out of Congress,” Gallas said.
Rankin has been endorsed by former Gov. Mike Huckabee and former Fourth District Congressman Jay Dickey.
Rankin  is a 1989 Honor Graduate of Magnolia High School, attended Southern Arkansas University and graduated Magna Cum Laude from Ouachita Baptist University after being selected as the “Ouachitonian Outstanding Senior Woman.”
She served the state as Miss Arkansas 1994. Rankin performed in the fall, Christmas and New Year’s shows of America’s Piano Showman DINO in Branson, Missouri, before retuning to Arkansas to work for Gov. Huckabee.
While working in the governor’s office, Rankin served in several capacities including liaison and policy advisor to the National Governors’ Association, the Southern Governors’ Association, the Council of State Governments, Southern Growth Policies Board, Capitol Hill and the White House.
Under the direction of Gov. Huckabee, she coordinated the Governor’s Summit on Economic Development and launched and chaired the state-wide effort in selection of the winning design for the Arkansas quarter.
A small business owner, Rankin Anne founded Beth Anne Productions, Inc. in 1998.


Once again I would like to thank Jim Harris for this update.

  1. I just don't like the marked lack of experience in anything! She had a posh job in DC, she's never had a real job, and she seems like she wants to be a career politician. Is that really what we need? To trade down? We need a powerful voice in DC for south arkansas, not a freshman.

  2. So Kyle, I guess you want to keep Mike Ross in office?? You are making assumptions about Rankin which you know nothing about. Rankin is qualified, she supports liberty and freedom. She IS what Mike Ross only pretends to be. Mike Ross is not a powerful voice in DC -- he is only a Democratic "lap dog" puppet on their string.

    I agree with Kyle. I vote a straight GOP ticket every time except for Mike Ross. I'd like to keep him in office if for no other reason than the fact that he knows what he's doing. She has gone from a fake job for the Governor (which was later cut as reckless government spending) to a fake business she has run into the ground. Frankly, I'm a little offended that she is acting the way she is right now. She is a prime examples of one of our own Republicans running on Bible verses and/or mindless talking points wholly detached from reality.
