Born: Joseph Zachary Randall on May 13th 1988 in Fort Smith Arkansas to Cindy Randall neé Gammill, a secretary and Brad Randall, owner of the Randall Ford car dealership in Fort Smith. I grew up in my fathers business, learning the car business and small business worlds. In 2006 I graduated from Fort Smith Southside high school before attending Oklahoma State University, where I earned a Bachelor's of Science in Aerospace Administrations and Operations. I lived in Dallas for 2 and a half years working as a corporate pilot and flight instructor before returning home to work in my families business and then return to corporate flying and airport operations at the Little Rock National Airport. In 2016 I met Maryam Randall neé AlQadasi and we were married in 2017. In 2018 we had our first child, Oliver. What lead me to politics was my mothers personal battle with cancer and the challenges she faced with insurance on both the public and private side. I felt that if I did not get involved and fight the rights of all people who are struggling than I had failed in my responsibilities to my state.
  • Working family tax cuts
  • Education
  • Health care
1st is Economic growth for the middle class. Cutting taxes for working families and growing Arkansas struggling economy.

2nd is education. You unless we provide a top tear education for our children they will struggle to be competitive is a growing global economy.

3rd is health care. The very motivation for me running to begin with. To help struggling families that faced challenges to even stay covered and those who face illness's that insurance companies resist paying for.
John F Kennedy and Franklin Roosevelt. These men represented a spirit of public service and patriotism that is rarely seen in today's politics.
Leadership and moderation.
Honesty, forthrightness and an ability to listen and see other points of view besides my own.
To bring the voice of those that elected them to the capital.
The first purely historical event that happened would be the Oklahoma City bombing. The pulled us out of class to tell us about it. I was, I believe, in first grade so I would have to have been about six. The first political event is I vaguely remember Bill Clinton running for President in the 1992 election and I was about 4 years old.
Detailing cars in my families car dealership. I had it every summer since I was 12.
to Many to list. Reading, learning and developing a broader understanding of the world is something that has been a constant is my life.
Probably Baby Shark, I have a 1 year old ha.
No. I believe that what we are needing now is legislators that have: first the best interests of their constituents at heart and two bring fresh ideas for improvement, not just politics as usual.
Adaptation to a global and national economy while education our children in a manner that behooves them moving into this growing economy.
A relationship of compromise and cooperation.
Absolutely. When there is a spirit of cooperation and support, not rivalry and disfunction, it benefits the state.
