The Arkansas Democrat is one of two newspapers published under that name in the state of Arkansas. The first Arkansas Democrat was published by William E. Woodruff in the 1840s.

The second Democrat newspaper was founded in 1878 by the Arkansas Democrat Company. In the late nineteenth century the president was James Mitchell, the vice president G. C. Naylor, the secretary-treasurer W. W. Mitchell. In addition to producing the paper, the company served as a general printer, book binder, and stationer. Offices of the company were located at 214-216 East Markham Avenue.

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette was formed in October 1991 with the acquisition of the Arkansas Gazette by the Arkansas Democrat.
