He is a candidate for Circuit Judge, Division 4 of Arkansas's 2nd Judicial Circuit.
Curtis Hitt and Andrew Nadzam are on the November 3, 2026 runoff ballot for this seat on the 2nd Judicial Circuit, after neither received a majority of the vote in the March 3, 2026 nonpartisan judicial primary, per the Arkansas Secretary of State's 2026 candidate list (post-primary active filings). Sitting Circuit Judge Doug Brimhall ran for reelection and finished third in the March 3, 2026 primary, so he is not on the runoff ballot.

Every voter in Clay, Craighead, Crittenden, Greene, Mississippi, and Poinsett counties elects this seat, since Arkansas circuit judges are elected circuit-wide across the 2nd Judicial Circuit (Clay, Craighead, Crittenden, Greene, Mississippi, Poinsett; the seat is designated at-large across the circuit), per the Arkansas Judiciary's circuit map (cross-checked against the Arkansas Times' March 2026 primary-night judicial roundup). Arkansas circuit court races are nonpartisan.
