The Democratic Party of Arkansas is the affiliate of the Democratic Party in the state of Arkansas. The current party chair is Grant Tennille. Former U.S. president Bill Clinton was born in Arkansas, and served as state governor from 1979 to 1981 and 1983 to 1992.

Arkansas was historically a Democratic stronghold, voting Democratic in all 23 presidential elections from 1876 through 1964. However, in the 21st century the party has seen its electoral power steadily decline in the state. Democrats control no statewide or federally elected offices in Arkansas, and have minorities in both houses of the state legislature.
