Does anyone have a link to the most up to the minute results?

Guest is kicking fly boy’s ass.

@ 8:00 pm https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/06/28/us/elections/results-mississippi-us-house-district-3.html

2:1 Guest to Cassidy with half the precincts reporting

No show Palazzo is not doing so well.

Cassidy is a rookie who got caught with some socialist cra on his website and blew his chances after doing well in the primary.

Guest had the money behind him to do a negative campaign, just like many RINOs, with little or no mention of his accomplishments.

MS will continue to stay last in good things and first in bad things.

Looks like BT is going to pay MG back for his Jan6. support by getting MG the votes needs via HiCo to pull ahead. The good ole Dem playbook!

Who is no show?

I don’t know anything about Guest or Cassidy but the non-stop radio ads tell me Cassidy is a RINO.

Looks like the Mitt Romney/Liz Cheney wing of the GOP is winning is District 3. II Corinthians 4:4

I voted for a guy named Michael

A win by Guest doesn't negate his status as a zero.

Either way, Mississippi loses. Best and brightest leave, and we’re left with the dummies that don’t (including myself).

The "socialist" stuff. When I heard about it and then read it, here is what I thought. It sounded like something someone says when you are sitting around drinking with a couple of buddies, solving the world's problems. Ideas are spitballed without actually putting them to pen and paper. We've all done it. Except he put them on his website. I'm pretty sure if he sat down and calculated them, he would probably have backed off of them but he did put them on his website and the other side took full advantage of it as it should have done.

Guest sent my now 19 years deceased mother direct mail touting his pro-life bona fides. He was that desperate. Thing is, my mother never lived at this address at any time in her life.

Looks like we are stuck with RINO Guest for another four years. And the only way we will be rid of Bennie is via the undertaker.

@8:33 PM That would be another 2-years, not 4-years.

KF @8:25 PM - I agree, he didn't think that through, and Guest was desperate and found that dirt to use in his 99% negative campaign.

Four more yearsof RINO Guest!

Guest is proof that the object of being in Congress is to represent yourself, raise money for yourself, and slander anyone who dares to oppose you.

A bit off topic here, forgive me. I enjoy this blog and particularly the comments from readers, but I don’t understand the constant comments about how bad Mississippi is. We’re first in bad things, last in good things, etc. If these posters live here, why not move? If they don’t, why are they so interested in what happens here? Baffling. I grew up here, went to Texas for six years. I came back because I love Mississippi and it is home. I enjoy hunting, fishing, hiking. I also enjoy meeting nice, grounded, usually Christian people. I don’t miss miles of concrete and spending an hour and fifteen minutes driving 20 miles to work. Call me crazy, but I’ll be here the rest of my life.

I'd rather have Medicare for All than send $40 billion to Ukraine. Too bad Mississippi has no representatives like Matt Gaetz or Marjorie Taylor Greene. Voting in Mississippi is a waste of time if you reject the Deep State line.

Michael Guest on ethical campaigning.

Ethics? I ain't got no ethics.
I don't need no ethics.
I don't have to show you no stinking ethics.

@Chuckles Guest will be appointed to Wicker's senate position when he retires prior to his term ending in 2024. I say give it a year. Either way the snake slithers back to the swamp.

Blech

Disappointing but not unsurprising. Two more years of RINO.

@8:46 PM Not to worry because some of that $40 billion is being laundered through Joe's kid. Remember he has ties to Ukraine? The Biden family are due their commissions, along with some Congress critters.

Much of it will be used to pay into the U.S. military industrial complex, and like LBJ, many pols in WDC hold stock in those companies.

Good riddance to Palazzo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Guest works for planned parenthood and the dems.
This was predicted day 1 of his 1st term.
He's turned into another Hyde Wicker. Bought rinos
MS wants that apparently as you keep voting for it

Guest is a dirty bas****

Got upstaged on the 7th and spent on dirty/dishonest ads like his life depended on it in the runoff - and the sheep ate it up.

I’d ask if that’s who you really want representing you?? But apparently the sheep do.

Wonder how many months it'll take for Palazzo to check into his DC office and discover he didn't win?

Serious question here. Who gives the orders to the GOP delegation? Is it Haley Barbour? Wicker, Guest et al are not beholding to the people.

Who do these guys answer to?

In the words of our late Guv Kirk Fordice ... Cassidy, Palazzo and Eller just experienced an "ass whooping".

A bit off topic, but. . .

This happened at my polling place around 10:30 this morning. Corner Old Canton Rd. and Madison Avenue.

I had just finished voting and on the way out there was a young woman in a green dress. As I passed I heard her say to one of the poll workers: "I am with WJTV and we were wondering if we could come inside to get some footage?" Of course the poll worker replied that that was not allowed. The young woman was not displaying any press credentials or any identification at all. When I got out to the parking lot I looked around pretty carefully and saw no WJTV or labeled press vehicle.

I thought to myself what is going on here? Any real reporter would know that photography inside the polling place is prohibited. I am trying to mind my manners and call the young woman a "reporter" rather than a "TV personality." (I did not recognize her at all).

What kind of scam was this or was it just amateur hour? Did anyone else witness a similar interaction?

I have been over most of this world. Have lived here most of my life and altho we have problems, I'd rather live here than anywhere else. Tho Guest has not burned the world with doing a lot, I'd still trust him better than a LOT of others when it comes to helping run this country. I've never met him, but he is the kind of man that I would trust if I needed help. No, I'm not part of the Rankin County Mafia.

Guest sourced VOX. You dumb MFs.

Another RINO in Congress. His record will fall under scrutiny this day forward.

Nice job Democrats.

The discussion for Senate seat has now begun.

Looks like 8:17pm likes to brag about the outcome…?

I guess Mississippi is the last frontier?

I’m remember when the term “RINO” was coined. It was applied differently back then. Apparently nowadays it applies to any Republican that isn’t a Trump humper. That shit heel will be the undoing of the GOP.

We really vote for Guest the same way they vote for LaDumba.
Nobody cares what actions these elite untouchables take. Just keep towing the party line.
We really do get the government we deserve.

So Rex, you think Guest is NOT a RINO? I would assume you know the entire Russia, Russia, Russia has been completely unraveled?

If not, I would expect a whole hell of a lot of inquiry before I ever cast a vote for impeachment, be damned your Orange man bad syndrome.

The problem is that all of you folks calling Guest a RINO seem to think you own the party's ideology. You don't. The majority do and we have spoken. If your puritanical approach to politics can't abide, then kindly see yourself out. Democracy is about compromise.

9:42: I believe it's the various tentacles of Koch Industries that call the shots these days, which has only gotten worse since they created the Tea Party over 10 years ago.

No Show Pal@$$o probably spending tonight wishing that Stacy had held off on getting whatever Stickering he got until after today's primary. That's a sweet landing spot for any electile dysfunctional former congress critter.

819, maybe you need to study the district and the actual precinct results a little more before you spout off your bullshit commentary. First, where are those votes that BT is supposed to be getting MG? Second, what are the precinct results that can back up your bullshit commentary?

For anybody that actually knows how to read election results it is more than clear that there is no basis for your bullshit claim. Next, you ought to compare the precinct results of today's election to that of June 7th - and then try to find some kind of basis for your crap. It aint there.

Next time, stay home, eat your cheetos, and get in line for your fake 'medical' weed license.

8:44 -- Dirt? Hell, he put it out as his platform. How is repeating what your opponent has claimed to be his position dirt?

I always thought political dirt was trying to take some comment and twist it to a different interpretation; or making up something (kinda like the Macawca moment for the Senator from Virginia some decade ago).

But taking the exact words off of your opponents website and exposing them to the electorate is not dirt.

And KF - your thought that he never thought them through doesn't wash when you listen to Cassiday's answer. He was courting the American Family Radio crowd (those idiots up in Tupelo that sell their endorsements). Cassiday thought this was a way to build strong families, which is what they tout regularly. He didn't care about the costs, he wanted their support through the AFA radio network.

9:45 - photography is allowed in a voting precinct. Don't know where you studied election law, but haven't you ever seen all the elected politicans 'casting their vote' - most often with their spouse by their side - at their polling place on election day?

Yes, the media can come inside a polling place and shoot film. If a voter objects to being filmed while voting, there are restrictions but generally based on the same rules that those doing the photography would do in other situations.

It would have been appropriate for the poll worker to ask for credentials, which according to your report was not done. But since your analysis of the situation was wrong, don't know whether to totally accept your reporting of the situation.

Overall, though - as has been said before about other issues - at this point, what difference does it make? The reporter probably went to another precinct where they were let in, shot some footage that may or may not have made it through the cutting room and actually been shown as background behind one of our local talking heads.

What would expect from a bunch of dipshits?

MS better be careful…..if DC gets tired of paying MS bills….MS will become Mexico City in a flash.

Clean the swamp. They all need to go.

I am very curious to see if Guest lost Rankin again, but won Hinds!

Michael Guest won.

Like y'all always tell people in Jackson: "You get what you vote for!"

Thompson was tied to a terrorist organization. He was friends with Chock’s dad. Read this. https://www.lawenforcementtoday.com/revealed-chair-of-jan-6-commission-at-one-time-advocated-for-insurrection-supported-group-that-got-cop-killed/

I’m guessing there are hard questions being asked in the Guest camp by Friday. His family and inner circle are probably going to be looking at how much they’ve paid Frontier strategies and what did they get for their money. Doubling your vote count in a primary runoff (and that’s not Thompson area votes for all you kooks) is candidate strength alone. Guest has a personal network that runs deeper than any other elected official in this State. Seriously who else can work phones and bring out an additional 5-6k voters in less than 3 weeks.

Seriously who else can work phones and bring out an additional 5-6k voters in less than 3 weeks.

Uh, basically some charter bus loads of Mules, and a shit load of ballot stuffing.

Guest owes more than Frontier. Now he owes Benny, Chuck, and Nancy.

Expect a lot more bipartisanship going forward.

You people are literally MAGA cultists. Guest is a Trump loyalist through and through. I mean, he voted against certifying the election. But he votes in favor of finding out what happened on Jan. 6 and you all lose your minds over that? Afraid of the truth much?

Oh, you people also probably think the election was stolen, because your orange god (or was it Q?) told you so. Guess what - people who can't use logic and reason like YOU are the reason Mississippi is dead last.

@8:07am - You’re wasting your time arguing with these stable geniuses.

I hope the Guest cheerleaders are right.
He seems to be a God in their eyes so surely he will impress all rational Republicans in the next few years.

If he is as good as they say he is, then his actions will demonstrate that and I will have no problem supporting him going forward.

And if his performance is abysmal, I am sure they will have no issue admitting that he is in fact not our guy in the next election.

Just kidding. The Rankin GOP will continue to tell us exactly who the next prince in line for the throne is and we will be good little peasants and respect our overlords.

As a merc voter, I voted for Guest. If he's a RINO then I am pleased with these results, suffer.

In one year Guest's district will turn blue, which will turn MS blue, thanks to the RINO voters.

Cassidy ran on the January 6th Commission vote and almost pulled off a primary victory.
Guest didn’t take primary seriously and he almost paid for it.
Cassidy ran on the America First Platform, but had no ideas to show for it. Some of his ideas were very radical and would
make Sanders smile. A quick search of his website would find this. You can run as a MAGA candidate, but good luck winning with Medicare for all and 20k wedding gifts.

Guest is Bennie’s “boy” now.
Oh how the times have changed!
I hope Bennie calls him “boy” too!

I personally sent a message to Cassidy asking about his stance on the Yazoo Pump Project based on the fact Cassidy's mother worked for the Sierra Club(the environmental group that worked so hard to get it shut down) for 16 years and how that would affect his stance if it came to a vote. I explained that I realized the location was not in his district, but a lot of his constituents owned property in the area the flooding affects. Cassidy replied "Check out my platform on energy independence and expanding oil drilling..." whiskey tango foxtrot? That has nothing remotely close to do with it. Dude is clueless as to the state of Mississippi and it's affairs. He then went on to call a member of Michael's staff a liar and a fraud. A guy I have the utmost respect for and has served the state of Mississippi in a law enforcement capacity for years. Cassidy just wanted to win, he doesn't care about Mississippi at all. He said all the right things to make the Trump ring kissers get all excited. His whole campaign is about twisting facts and outright lying just to win the election. He was planted here by someone else, you can bank on it.

Did anyone catch the clip last night where the news was trying to interview him and he said "you can bounce out of here"...talk about weak. Guest is not the person the Cassidy and the uninformed make him out to be. Trust me.

McDanielites can take a breather. The cycle will take at least five years minimum before you can skip another kook on the ballot. But nice try again.

In this campaign and vote, Guest learned two lessons: Don't vote against Conservatives and avoid Pallazo's sloppy mistakes. We'll see an improved Guest but he'll never be baptized in Reagan/Trump blood sufficiently to be trusted.

Are the Guess supporters destined to become like Biden supporters? You got what you want, but will you want what you got?

10:25am Bingo!! Look at the people’s social media who supported Cassidy. They think Chris McDaniels is the second coming. How many times do y’all have to lose before you realize yours is the minority opinion?

@10:25–you’re spot on!!!Krusatyr—-I thought you nut jobs called Reagan a RINO.If he was and Guest is one so am I.

12:30 said that American Family Radio sells their endorsement and praised Cassidy. 12:30 called them idiots. If they sold to Cassidy they must be idiots. Cassidy's campaign had no money while the Guest campaign was flush with cash.

Sounds to me like 12:30 is the idiot.

Guest should be ashamed. The dishonest lowbrow trash he put out in the mail and on TV attacking Serviceman Michael Cassidy was disgusting.

I received about a dozen cartoonish completely false and deceitful smear pieces in the mail.

He further revealed his true character.

"You will know them by their fruits".

I will vote against him the the general.

You people need to stop with the Guest being a RINO thing.
In fact stop ALL the RINO talk. I know what a Republican is and it is not you people! Guest is almost 100% with your freak former Pres. Trump.

To all of you people comparing Cassidy to McDaniel. Wasn’t it confirmed that Democrat voters were used to overwhelm opposition voters back then too? You aren’t really helping Guest by reminding everyone that the establishment MSGOP will pull out all the stops and even call in favors from the DNC, to suppress party dissent!

1:52
I like how the mailers were all lies yet had Cassidy's own words/platform on them!! You are probably one who got worked up over the word "rino" which is the political n-word, it means nothing, and failed to read Cassidy's ridiculous platform?! This whole "you cant criticize Cassidy because he is the Navy" is bs, he isn't a war hero he is a civilian contractor! Hell Michael was at least locking bad guys up for 20 years prior to being in DC. Be interesting to see what the Navy does to him now that the election is over, or if you are mpvr no worries because he really didn't get grounded. Bottom line Cassidy drew first blood, Guest then fought back.

"I know what a Republican is" yeah, Barry Goldwater.

2:25, he doesn't need our help. But keep typing.

This state just dodged a bullet. A hyper embarrassing bullet.

I can hear the Cassidy supporters now "the election was rigged. Let's storm the Secretary of State's office to make sure he doesn't certify the election (bring the zip ties!)...find 23,000 votes!!!".

You people lost y'alls damn minds.

So 8:46 can you not look at jackson & hinds county and the rest of Bennie's district to see what voting DIM-O-Krat gets you?????

At least we had one to lose @3:21, in your case, not so much.

Results from the Madison County sites
( not certified)
Guest won-- Do you voters see that?
Pilot never had a chance.
