Conway businessman Conrad Reynolds, a candidate for the GOP nomination to challenge U.S. Sen. Blanche Lincoln next year, is a father again.

Reynolds’ wife, Rufiya, gave birth to Austin Robert Reynolds at 1:24 p.m. today at Conway Regional Medical Center, according to a release from Reynolds’ campaign. Austin’s birth weight was 8 pounds.

This is the fourth child for Reynolds. He also has a 17-month-old daughter and an adult son and daughter.

Conrad Reynolds, a Republican hopeful for the U.S. Senate seat now held by Blanche Lincoln, tells Jason Tolbert he is “disappointed” that state Sen. Gilbert Baker, a fellow Conway resident, has entered the race after telling Reynolds he didn’t want the job.
