As I'm sure we're all aware, Mississippi whites vote overwhelmingly for the Republicans(+90% of whites in 2016). But what are the demographics of the handful of whites who vote Democratic? Are a significant number holdouts from the Solid South of yore who haven't gotten the memo? Are they demographically similar to white Democrats elsewhere(disproportianately young, college educated, urban, poor, and female)? Are they disproportionately in mixed-race marriages/partnerships?

Up until about 10 years ago there were, but those people have mostly either died off or switched over to voting Republican. White Democrats in MS are mostly actual liberals nowadays, and are disproportionately young and from out of state.

IIRC (and this is half-remembered, possibly outdated information) Mississippi has one of the lowest rates of interracial marriage in the country, though the few who are are probably more likely to vote Democratic.
