The entire leadership of the state Democratic Party should resign over this.

Un. F***ing. Believable.

Agree. Rickey Cole and Brandon Jones aren't what the MS DEM party needs.

I've pulled my avatar out of disgust.

Maybe this will be good for the state party in the long run. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you climb out of the hole.

Hinds County locked their keys in the courthouse so they won't be able to count the last 5 precincts tonight. Issaquena, Tunica, Holmes all still haven't reported. Couple other counties with some boxes out too.

A few grasping-at-straws theories:
  • His name being first on the ballot helped
  • A lot of suburban Democrats (like me) voted in the Republican primary due to local races, costing Slater votes
  • A lot of rural Republicans vote in Democratic primaries due to local races, and they may have just voted for the first name, or intentionally picked the generic/white-sounding man's name.
  • Some voters may have heard a blurb about Democrats running a lesbian and somehow confused Pritchett with Slater/Short and therefore picked a man's name
  • Slater and Short did have campaign signs, but they may have been almost entirely in the Jackson Metro, where most people voted Republican


Rickey Cole better resign over this. What a joke.

Can the GOP take the Northern Public Service Commission District in November? Or it the Democratic incumbent popular and electable to Northeastern Mississippi?

Yes, he's actually Elvis' 2nd cousin.

I still can't understand that Gray person. Seems to be "some dude" in purest form, but - managed to win absolutely different (Black, white, rich, poor, urban, rural, mostly liberal, mostly conservative) and so on parts of the state. Something must be behind all this)))

And, if i understand correctly, "establishment" did rather well in state Senate races, while "insurgents" (of tea-party type) did better in state House primaries (almost exclusively because of DeSoto). Am i correct?

And one additional note - with Hale gone there is one less conservative Democrat in state Senate. Wilemon seems to me being the only one, who may be called one..

Establishment did well in state senate but Sojourner and Watson still won their elections avoid a runoff. House tea party did well with several upsets in DeSoto and one in Madison.

^ Thanks!. If i understand correctly - "some dude" at top of the ticket may adversely affect some close legislative races in November, so forecast for November somewhat tilts into Republican favor...

Absolutely. This is a complete disaster for MS Dems.

In State House District 121, the two democratic candidates are tied at 323 votes each with 100% of the vote in. How is the winner determined there?

Not sure what you are seeing. I saw Crawford winning with 57% or 58% of vote.

I'm talking about the Democratic numbers. The Dawkins/Pearse race.

Well, Utah no longer has the least competent Democratic Party, I guess.

I still am amazed that a truck driver who didn't even vote managed to get the MS Dem nomination.
