Good question. Would like to know myself.
I’m still not convinced that the nursing home deal wasn’t a false flag to build sympathy.
MS Ping.

“Maybe Cochran’s time is just up.” You think, maybe? 40 years! Good grief!
HE WAS NOT INVOLVED AT ALL.
Chris McDaniel is running a completely upbeat, positive campaign.
I personally know his one of his campaign manager's, too.
Those creeps did all that crap on their own.
“...Can someone win with a plurality or does someone have to get 50% to avoid a run-off?”

A candidate in Mississippi this year needs to get 50% to avoid a runoff.
AH. K. Thanks for the heads up on that.
Will be interesting. Here’s hoping!

The author of the article, John Marshall, said that; not me.
Since the Thaddites sat on it for what they thought was a politically opportune moment, I tend to agree.
Do you suppose many voters didn’t know that this old goat is living with his “aide” while his wife languishes in that nursing home? Many Christians still think the promise he made to be faithful to her “Till death us do part” actually means till death.
After his surrender to Grant at Appomattox, Robert E. Lee went home to care faithfully for his invalid wife until her death. Then he cared for her sick mother until she too passed away. Duty was a guiding principle in Lee’s life. Today it’s the least appreciated of all the virtues.

Wow; this thing could drag on for awhile. Thomas L. Carey is the third guy running in this race; he could draw enough votes to throw this into a run-off.
Give that old lib geezer the BOOT!

And an interesting thing is that, for any federal office runoffs, Mississippi will be using “ranked choice ballots” for overseas and out-of-state military voters to use. See details in the linked article. Our military voters need to clearly understand that they will get those “runoff” ballots at the same time they get their primary ballot and need to complete that and return it along with their primary ballot.

Not sure. Let’s ask the good folks from the Magnolia State. How about it folks? Is this pretty much common knowledge?
I don’t know how anyone would gain an advantage by filming/photographing the invalid wife of one’s opponent.
Hence I don’t see why mcdaniel would be behind it.
Lone wacko did it imo.
why would anyone think that filming/photgraphing an opponent’s invalid wife would help?
