Sarah Huckabee Sanders will make history Tuesday when she is sworn in as the first female governor of Arkansas, and the youngest governor in the nation, with plans to bring an "aggressive, bold and conservative" agenda that will have a "generational impact" on the state.
Sanders, 40, easily defeated Democratic opponent Chris Jones in November. She succeeds Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who was term-limited and could not run again. He endorsed her bid.
Sanders follows in the footsteps of her father, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who led the state from 1996 to 2007.
"It is a pretty humbling thing," Sanders told Fox News Digital during an exclusive interview ahead of her inauguration. "As far as we know, we’ll be the first-ever father-daughter pair anywhere in the country, and so, you know, that is a pretty historic and amazing thing."
