William "Bill" Gwatney is the current State Chair of the Democratic Party of Arkansas and a superdelegate to the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Prior to being State Chair, he was a State Senator and State Attorney General. He also owns three car dealerships in Pulaski County, Arkansas.
On August 13, 2008, Gwatney was wounded when Tim Johnson entered Democratic Party headquarters in Little Rock, Arkansas and shot Gwatney three times. He had said he wanted to speak with Gwatney about volunteering, but sidestepped his secretary when she said he was busy. After the shooting, Johnson fled the scene in his truck and led police on a 30-mile (48 km) chase out of Little Rock. Johnson was shot by police after a PIT maneuver forced him off the road into a field near Sheridan. He later died of his injuries.
