The votes are in and the message is clear: Hinds County voters had enough of the clown show that takes place every other week on President Street. The election and precinct reports for Hinds County are posted below as well as some highlights.
Over 40,000 voters cast ballots yesterday in Hinds County as voter turnout continues to fall as it does in Jackson.
However, fewer voters went to the polls than four years ago when there were more contested elections.
The 2023 numbers are closer to 2015 when most statewide officials ran as incumbents with little to no opposition.
The race to replace Deborah Gibbs turned into the expected dogfight as the Mayor's sister, former Representative's son, and Tomie Green's son squared off for four year trip to the Capitol. Justis Gibbs took the lead in Hinds County.......
but wait! There are votes in Madison County and Sista Rukia won those by a 67-vote margin, cutting the Gibbs lead to 321 votes.
Marshand Crisler never learns and last night was no exception. Crisler gave up a well-paying job to run for Sheriff - after he lost by 5,000 votes nearly two years ago to Sheriff Tyree Jones. Crisler didn't have enough misery so he ran against him again but lost by over 20,000 votes. Of course, Marshand blamed the white man even though most white voters participated in the Republican primary. Let's see, Marshand. You lost to Sollie Norwood, Harvey Johnson kicked your ass, Dick Hall road all over you, and Tyree Jones demolished you. Did you ever think people just don't like you? Ponder that on the tree of woe.
Hinds County voters made it clear they were sick and tired of being sick and tired of the drama at the Board of Supervisors. They sent David Archie packing while Bobcat, Vern, and Credell are fighting for their political lives in runoffs. Debbie Dixon came oh so close to avoiding a runoff. Vern forgot he should not have backed Leon Seals' opponent in the 2021 Sheriff's election, and Bobcat is well, Bobcat.
Posted below are the precinct reports. Data mine to your heart's content.

Few will miss Archie's tantrums, hope he isn't violent at home.
I understand that pretty much all options suck, but there are some that suck less than Archie.
I hope they continue to stand up and say "no thanks" to more of these lunatics.
Has anyone checked on David Archie? David Archie said he wasn’t worried because “y’all”
had him! What happened that “y’all” didn’t show up for him yesterday. Y’all get David some help so he won’t burn Hinds County down before his term ends!

David Archie wasn’t the worst HCS the last four years, much to my shock. He just had a problem with controlling his outage and anger at the incompetence and malaise of some of the other HC Supes. He wasn’t driven along racial lines-which was surprisingly refreshing!
But he was not McQuirter who should go back in..
Deborah Dixon going to bring the entertainment next term.
It's low down dirty white folks to blame for Archie's loss.
Hinds County already has dysfunction down cold. Adding upheaval to mix is completely in character.
NONE of those candidates are anything close to competent people. They could not survive with a real job.
1:39, I take exception with that. McQuirter is top notch. Hopefully he wins. Evers has owned a business for some time so she must have some sense. But yeah, that's about it.
I know this is a Hinds County post (and thank you), but I am dead to see the votes in the Madison the City Precincts in the Lt Guv race after Mary pulled her little stunt.
Make no mistake there will still be a clown show at the Board meetings, but at least it will be a touch more civilized. Hinds County and Jackson voters cannot correct the dysfunction in any single election, the candidates are too shallow, but they can send a message that they are not satisfied with the state of affairs and will make change. Baby steps.
Forget the COJ shitshow. That is yesterday news.
I want to see how many votes Bryan Bailey got?
Who the hell in Madison County is voting for a Lumumba?... Isn't that precisely why you live in Madison County?!?!?!?...
We have that many Republicans?
From Rukia the Activist to Rukia the Representative? That's rich - screwing up Jackson wasn't enough so might as well bring the State down with it...
Does it matter if voters replace one clueless democrat with another clueless democrat?
3:41 The last redistricting put a part of Ridgeland (north of County line, south of the Trace, west of 51 to the Reservoir) and paired it with a huge part of Northwest Jackson. I moved from Jackson two years ago because of the LuBumbles family. Now I may just have to put up with her ignoring Ridgeland...
Where does one go to pull these detailed precinct reports? Inquiring minds....
I can't help but think how much better off we would be today if Mike Morgan was still on the Board of Supervisors. He's an associate professor of finance at USM who brought an organized & professional perspective to all issues that came before the board. But he's white & therefore had to go, so the black racists who run Hinds County redistricted so that it was all but impossible for Morgan to be reelected.
Live in the Bolton area. Crossed my party line to cast our votes against the ass hat David Archie. As we were walking into the precinct, twenty to thirty feet from entering the open air fire station, a worker yelled,” republicans over here”. Thought she was going to have a whale when we told her Democrat. We were best friends with the entire crew while there lol. This was a local politic decision. Archie has done N O T H I N G out here in four years. At least his successor kept the road ways cut.
Madison County,
It’s y’all’s fault if the Mayor’s sister manages to win the election, not Jackson’s.
Sincerely,
Jackson
Archie sounds just like Trump with his rigged election claims.
That litany of statistical data is useless, boring and a total of waste of your time and mine.
But the number of votes garnered by Rukia is actually frightening.
The dream for a separate nation must be more ingrained than I thought.
OK Election fudge over with... Please Please Please let's see an article on the COJ budget hearings today, where yesterday, - no video of course- the ZOO is funded 1.7 million by the city and that idiot director wearing the rock revival Jeans and a different pair of kicks for each over priced, under sized "suit" he owns, and a brand new city truck, and specialized side funding for his golf clique and wanna be frat is only bringing in $50,000 in revenue... FFS ! This has been going on for years and these clowns just now decide to question it? Where's the budget presentation for FY2022-2023. Not to be found on the COJ website. Where is this presentation they speak of from yesterday, where it says that the Zoo revenue is only down by 1% and why the Hell did they NOT look at it last year?? Guess Goliath gonna get by with a little slap on the wrist and finally have that Zoo taken away that he "never wanted in the first place" - comical... and they wonder why they only had one city pool working at a time on rotation for this whole past summer. All I can say is LOL.
@5:50 PM You are welcome. It's called bundling. You get both Chowke and his sista Rukia running the Marxist People's Republik of Jackistan and Hinds Co.
Rukia Lumumbles hasn't won yet. It's headed to a runoff.
Y'all need to get your folks out to vote for Justis Gibbs. He's by far the best choice.
Send the thieving Lumumbles home before they destroy the entire district the same way they've destroyed Jackson... before it's too late.
Isn't Crisler still teaching at Jackson State. I'm pretty sure he is well taken care of.
Anybody know where I can find (on-line) information as to the voting results in various counties for state and local elections?
Link please and thank you.
With Archie gone I will have to start watching SNL for my entertainment.
Does Archie really think the election was stolen? I crossed lines to vote against him. The little old ladies were shocked a white woman was in the democrat line. All the while some asshat was on a megaphone outside yelling for Archie. No thank you. But I won't be voting dem in November.
", fewer voters went to the polls than four years ago when there were more contested elections....

Water is wet. I mean, your numbers are pretty self-explanatory. Lots of incumbents, fewer contested elections = fewer voters in an already apathetic voting base.
What are we missing?
