No rats for LT Gov, Auditor, or Sec of State. WOW. The Reform party is the only opposition for those races, didn’t know they still ran candidates. They have a full statewide slate and the dems don’t! Possibly you are allowed to fill the nominations later if no one files to run.
Every deep Southern state has seen numerous switches once the GOP takes over or comes very close. MS shouldn’t be an exception.
Interestingly, in the TN House, with our now commanding 2-to-1 GOP majority, not a single member has switched parties since the 2010 election. The last “switch” was when we kicked that backstabbing Judas ex-Speaker out of the party, and he was reelected as an Independent. There are some rural, center-right Dems, but they have yet to jump. They probably figure as long as they stay, they can keep getting reelected, and it keeps a tenuous balance of the party completely becoming a Black and Urban White Socialist one. Of course, with redistricting, we might sack some of those rural ones. Not much need to protect them, and once the Dems are freed of those “moderates”, they can be unencumbered to be full-blown ultraleft moonbat (and racist).
