According to the Associated Press, Ross says that he's taking another look at running for the office after Arkansas Attorney General Dustin McDaniel dropped out of the race earlier this year.

Ross says he's humbled by all of the calls across the state that he's been receiving to run for governor; prompting his decision to reconsider running.

Other candidates running for the position include former Lieutenant Governor Bill Halter, United States Representative Asa Hutchinson, and former United States Senate candidate Curtis Coleman.
