Too bad the poll didn't test to determine if voters would consider candidates who can't get their property taxes paid on time. Like Quentin Whitwell.

Without even a modicum of information about the sample the poll is nearly meaningless. Whomever paid for the poll is obviously trying to hurt Tagert.

4:11 you drone on day after day with this woodie for Whitwell. Did he reject your sexual advances or something?

That's a poll? Somebody has no idea how to poll. Somebody does have an idea how to draw boxes and push agendas.

Q-dawg gonna git hiz peepul tu da poles. Hiz posse haz 200 yeers of lockle suport. Can't bee supresed forver. Free at last!

Last time I got my hands on inside polling, it said no one had heard of Travis Childers and Steve Holland would crush him in the primary.

Maybe 4:11 had to resist Quentin's?

That looks like a push poll, no clues for us on who did it?

This message brought to you by the Log Cabin Republicans.

It would be nice if he caught up those back taxes since we had to pay for that special election when Quitwell blew off his last job.

Nice try with the push polling Trent Kelly and Morgan Baldwin. You must be pissed that Mike Tagart and Nancy Collins (YES HER) are leading the polling in this race?

This one is obviously Boyce Adams, Whitwell, or maybe a lesser known like Pirkle. Can't be Kelly since he is running for another office like Mike T and would not embarrass himself with the result on opposition to dual campaigning. Can't be Mike T because he lives outside district and again would not want to stress that weakness. My bet is Adams because the oil tax question and it's synchronicity to his latest ad entitled "Energy." Worth noting last three people to hold the office did so honorably even if you disagreed with them politically and they were all coming straight from local legislature or county office. My guess is Adams' is trying to make his past electoral failure, a weakness, when it comes to donors and supporters, into a strength.

Given the information preceding the questions and the conclusion, it doesn't look like a push poll. It looks like an attempt to see if the issues upon which the candidates have taken positions will help one of those candidates or not.
It looks like " not".
And, the risk is that if the candidate for whom the poll was done hits the other two on their positions, that candidate is equally vulnerable.
KF, it's funny to me that you report so much that is benign or objective, informative, positive news or " just the facts, ma'am" but still those commenting are negative or accuse you of bias.
Funny as in peculiar rather than " haha" as the inclination these days for people to be combative over nothing seems epidemic and not all that amusing.

I didn't take this thing seriously and posted it for your amusement more than anything.

With Zinn in the race it will make for an extremely desperate race on the GOP side. Zinn will get the Democratic base and may end up the top vote getter. With 12 GOP candidates there is no clear path for any to get in the runoff. It may turn nasty to get to the runoff spot especially looks like Zinn will make the runoff.

It may turn nasty to get to the runoff spot especially looks like Zinn will make the runoff.

Want to place a $100 wager on Zinn making the runoff? I'll send my $100 to Kingfish and you send yours. PUT UP.

His intelligence is greatly dwarfed by his ego. The resume consists of much boasting and few accomplishments. He may be the Democrat nominee but he will have no chance of winning. Last seen working for Chokwe. Yeah, that will play real well in that district.

My prediction
Runoff between Quentin Whitwell and Zinn

That is a catchy ad 10:53 AM

Don't count Daniel Sparks out yet

This will be a fun race. A few thoughts:

1) I for one, am looking forward to watching the Barbour backed candidate (Tagart) go up against Phil's guy (Adams).

2) Agree that Zinn should make runoff, unless the democrat base has a bad turnout

3) Desoto will be a huge factor in this race, but I do find it interesting that none of the main candidates are
from that area.

I actually live in Hattiesburg and have no dog in this fight, but I think this may shape up to be an entertaining election.

So Tagert has ALL of those qualities?
