The 1868 Arkansas gubernatorial election was held on 13 March 1868, in order to elect the Governor of Arkansas. Republican nominee and Union Brigadier general Powell Clayton won the election as he ran unopposed.[1]

Reconstruction

After the Civil War ended, Arkansas entered a period of reconstruction. It became part of the Fourth Military District until Arkansas was readmitted to the Union on 22 June 1868 (the first rebel state to do so), following congressional acceptance of the gubernatorial election's results and the new 1868 Arkansas constitution.[2]Шаблон:Sfn
