re: Espy will win Mississippi Senate race

Espy will NOT win. Mississippi is nothing if not consistent. The three G crowd will see to that. God, Guns, and the GOP that's the only way for me.
The only reason we even have a runoff is because McDaniel split the GOP vote.
MISSISSIPPI
Highest poverty rate.
Highest infant mortality rate.
5th highest unemployment rate.
3rd highest incarceration rate.
5th highest uninsured rate.
Thirty years of Republican senators and fourteen years of Republican governors. What a track record.

Honestly it's hard to argue against this.
But all that ever happens when you complain about it is some fricking redneck screaming "WELL IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN YOU CAN JUST LEAVE RREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

You deserve the mayor of fricking Jackson to be the governor. THAT is a fricking Mississippi democrat.

I agree but Espy won about the same percentage as Cindy Hyde-Smith and many of McDaniel’s voters will not turn out for her because of intra-party squabbles. I think CHS wins this 53-47, but she absolutely endangered a sure win with this gaffe.
ETA: Just checked McDaniel’s social media to see if he’s defended CHS. He has not. That’s a big deal because he’s anti-PC and could rally his voters to support CHS. Very many of his supporters think that the state GOP is corrupt and won’t turn out to vote in the runoff. That’s a potential game changer.

Yes, MS was a diverse, racially-harmonious, healthy, intelligent Utopia before the GOP took control 20 years ago.

Lol using this logic Jackson, MS should basically be NYC or Atlanta by now.. Oh wait our problems are much bigger than what party the state senator is from.

If you look closer though you can see the poor cities are run by Democrats.
Jackson and the Delta are Democrat havens.
The coast is mostly Republican.
I will give you a guess which area is economically better

You gonna blame this on the Senators?
No blame for the 2nd district US reps? Benny Thompson since 1993? Oh... yea... and it was Mike Espy from 87 to 93. How has the delta region improved under their representation? Take out the 2nd congressional district and Mississippi greatly improves in ALL of those rankings.
Republicans have only ran the legislature since 2011. It took a while for the state to suffer under democrat leadership. Let’s try longer than just 7 years vs from the civil war to 2011.

It’s an uncomfortable truth, but we all know these stats are not because of republican or democratic leadership, but the 1 million or so people living in the delta. When a particular demo is factored out, all those stats become either middling or above average. It’s also a good proof as to why importing slaves from the southern border to pick our crops is a disastrous idea.
