Voting Record
Nicholas Bronni is an incumbent Arkansas Supreme Court justice, not a legislator, so there is no legislative voting record to report. His public governing record is instead his judicial and solicitor-general work: the Arkansas Judiciary says he was appointed to the court in 2024 after serving as Solicitor General, where he argued cases including Delaware v. Pennsylvania and Rutledge v. PCMA, and his campaign site says he defended Arkansas laws on issues such as girls' sports, voter ID, and the state law barring contractors from boycotting Israel.
