Jackson Jambalaya

Most likely Mississippi return to a Blue State. The next census will likely show that immigrants are the largest minorit minority in this state And whites are now a minitory in Mississippi as well as the United State as a whole. President Kamala and Vice President Tim Walz both support federal voting civil rights for non-citizens.

Lord please help us if we’re dumb enough to look at Jackson, MS, California and almost all other out of control crime Democrat controlled cities and states, then choose Brandon Presley or anyone associated with the Democrat party to govern Mississippi.

Of the Democrats that run for Gov wonder how many will be living in the Democrat controlled inner city Jackson, MS where crime is rampant and innocent children were killed with stray bullets?

Malcom X was dead on correct 6 or so decades ago when he stated “that white person that you see calling himself a liberal (today its progressive Democrat) is the most dangerous thing in the entire Western Hemisphere.”

why should we care about the the governor's race in 3 years? lots of governing needs to happen before 2027 - much more light needs to shine on the legislative branch in that time.

Can you name a Republican controlled city (suburbs don't count)?

I wouldn't worry about Mississippi turning blue just yet. Decades of GOP control have successfully run most college educated young people out of the state, who we know are far more likely to vote Democrat. And no need to worry about those pesky growing, prosperous cities with their purple or blue tendencies, as we don't have any of those.

I'm with 8:25. It is too soon for this. 7 months into their new terms and they are chasing their next job instead of taking care of state business.

Relative to Mississippi.

Most likely you haven't spent a minute studying the numbers.

Most likely you are talking out of your rear end.

Most likely you are completely wrong.

What learned scholars we have commenting this AM. We have very few illegal immigrants in MS and little incentive for them to come here given our relatively low wages.

And for the "Decades of GOP control" person, MS didn't have a GOP majority in the legislature until 2011, and the majority of statewide offices didn't flip to GOP until 2004.

Facts are stubborn things.

2027 Mississippi candidates: The odds are good that the goods will be odd!

This presidential election will have more impact on our next gubernatorial election than ever before. Whichever party wins the white house will take the blame for the inevitable economic bloodbath we face, even in Mississippi. Neither candidate, especially Kamala have any clue about digging us out of the worthless dollar depression they are busy creating.

If the only choice we will have are those listed above, I hope my dog is still alive on election day so I can write him in.

I think the Democrats should nominate Hoseman. His agenda and views seem to align more with theirs. Since they don’t seem to be able to find candidates who can win State office, why not? If he supports much of their agenda, who cares what letter follows his name. One advantage for him would be in avoiding the expense and risk in a Republican primary free for all.

Delbert is not so much a Democrat sympathizer as he is a classic finger-in-the-wind politician (but who among them isn't?).

Delbert will be to old by the. At 81. Lynn and Shad will take each other out . The billionaire has the baggage any billionaire would have and his faith would be a problem in this State. Andy was on Gallo yesterday Sounded like he is t all in and has to pray about it. I’m going g for the businessman Darkhorse Gerard Gibert

Gipson would be a damn good Governor or Lt Governor.

The governor in Mississippi doesn’t have that much power. The Lt. governor as the head of the senate controls the appointment of the heads of the committees which gives him/her control of all legislation. That’s where the real power is.

To answer your question, 8:38 a.m., only 10 of the top 50 cities by population in the country have Republican mayors. They are:
• Dallas (#9 in population)
• Fort Worth (#15)
• Oklahoma City (#23)
• Fresno (#35)
• Mesa, Ariz. (#37)
• Omaha (#41)
• Virginia Beach (#43)
• Miami (#45)
• Tulsa (#48)
• Bakersfield, Calif. (#49)

Another 4 cities in the top 50 have independent mayors:
• San Antonio (#7)
• Honolulu (#11)
• Las Vegas (#26)
• Colorado Springs (#40)

The other 36 are all Democrats.

Gipson is as loony as Chris McDaniel.

Delbert is a traditional Republican, as opposed to the bat-s#!t crazy variety we have now. Until about 20 years ago, there was still room in the GOP for fiscally conservative and socially moderate, common-sense Republicans willing to reach across the aisle and compromise. The Tea Party, followed by the MAGA minions, have ensured that these Republicans -- along with political civility -- are no longer welcome in the modern GOP.

8:38 AM suburbs have to count since the burbs are where those wanting a safe environment for their families go (including many elite Democrats that won’t even live in their own party controlled cities).

While Netflix is run by leftists, there is a good doc “Fear City” that gives insight in to how crime ridden and corrupt New York City was after 20 years of Democrat mayors. 20 years of Republican/Independent Mayors turned NYC into much safer city but fruit cake freak show Democrat de Blasio and Democrat Eric Adams have used the tried and true Democrat tactic of chaos and crime to make sure enough voters flee into order to keep control of yet another US major city.

Gibson might be a good Governor but he needs to lose the 20 gallon hat and drop the Goober impersonation.

I don't know. I only believe what them folk on the TV tell me.

It seems to me that ole Salter is slobbering at the mouth at the prospect of a Democrat revival.

10:55, I have not researched Delbert enough to agree with you completely. But I do agree that my Republican party has become an utter shit show.
I miss Regan types and hoped DeSantis would be our candidate.

Alas, the majority (on both sides of the aisle) is addicted to the extreme, so more hate and gridlock to punish us peons.
While the political lords on both sides flourish.
Such is life now.

10:55. In. In view of Hoseman’s support for Medicaid expansion, I don’t see how he could be thought to be fiscally conservative. As for expanding already expensive and expanding social programs, I don’t see how that is a conservative idea in view of the fact that we can’t afford the ones we have in place, especially the federal programs. If he is a conservative, he can only be of that soft focus kind that the Bushes represented. And look where that got us.

The first comment is looney tunes. Immigrants can't vote until they become citizens. The commenter is showing ignorance about how we must register to vote in MS or else is too damn old and senile to remember what was required and now it's harder, not easier. Immigrants can't vote in any state. Pick one that you think would allow a non-citizen to vote and pull up the actual law. God save us from lazy and or stupid!

God save us from your mindless spin. Non-citizens are voting all over this country regardless of legality.
