Please just let this end.

I know the Cochran Republicans will pull out all the stops to prevent a McDaniel victory. Too bad they couldn't have operated with the same tenacity to kill Obamacare.

If ever there was a time to fight a piece of legislation, that time is now. Don't give me that BS about shutting down the Gov't being a disaster for the Republicans (i.e. New't in the 1990s). Yes, there are times to not fight and to "settle"; this is not the time to settle. The Obama legislation is killing and will continue to hammer the nails in the US coffin.

All the double counting proves is some Democrats were trying to help McDaniel win and the Cochran Republicans won. And now the TP needs to pack their bag and head for the house.

Newsflash: McDaniel didn't win. He might as well challenge though. His statewide political career is finished.

10:40am It will be over when the voter fraud investigation exposes the Cochran campaign for what it is, CORRUPT

11:15am I wouldn't count on that either.

How many times does Cochran have to vote and sponsor bills to stop Obamacare?
If you don't think that the shut down hurt the Republicans then you must not look at the results and the way it was used against them. The polls (all of them) laded the shut down on the Republicans and the ratings dropped. You want to fight Obama? Then get the 51 votes in the Senate and get rid of Reid! McDaniel cannot do it! Freshman Senators , if elected , have no power!

10:48a.m.....see, what i don't know is whether you and the other reasonable people out there know that none of the people running-the-show (mainstream establishment repubs) care WHAT rhetoric they use to get the power, just so long as they do get it!

these bastards have made citizenship an ENTITLEMENT instead of the privilege that it is, and they have waived ANY responsibility in exchange for that entitlement.

why would barbour-world be for such a drastic departure from the republican party that he was head of in reagan times? one reason, $$$$$$....his majesty has sold out! and newsflash for us dumbass mississippians--he sold out way before we elected him governor TWICE!

the reason for the apparent indecision by the republican leadership now is that they are all waiting for haley to tell em how to soin and handle this mess...they know that with all the foreign money he and butler-snow now handle that he can make or break politicians so all of 'em are wanting to be haley's bitch

so i'm asking all fellow tea partiers to get over it quick if we can't force a re-count and lets begin politicking as hard as we can to DEFEAT these sucks that sold us out, and that includes every republican incumbent!

I hope Chris is reviewing June 03rd primary where I believe he won out right!

50% plus 1 is all it took then and that is not many votes to search for.

Someone please tell McDaniel aka grand wizard of jones county, that the mayor of ellisville is around 80. Grand wizard needs to rally support and become mayor of his little hamlet. Then he can focus on building a true republican community and leave the rest of us alone. We rhinos are grow tired of the freak show.

I hate that there are a lot of agitators involved with this mess. Anarchists would be the better word to describe this. There is nothing wrong with challenging a vote but use some intelligence. Anarchists talk their rhetoric when they know they have no legal ground to stand on and then they suck in people that have no clue as to the legal process to help carry their torch. If and when this makes it to a court it will go away pretty quickly.

hey, chrissie - don't leave mad. Just leave. Nobody likes a sore loser. But if you do manage to cause a re-vote, I can guarantee your vote total will go down and you'll lose worse.

The problem I have with this is: "Volunteers working for tea party challenger Chris McDaniel..." Hate to say it but there generally tends to be an exaggeration when the "Tea Party" starts throwing around numbers. Also, when the Tea Party refers to McDaniel they call him the "Tea Party candidate." Though he has Tea Party support he was a Republican Party candidate. "Tea Party Candidate," at least to me, kind of obfuscates who he is. IMHO

It's been said "you can't fix stupid, but you can vote it out of office".

Apparently, voting stupid out of office sometimes takes a lot more effort than others.

SIGH

While discussing majority in the Senate, did some dunce up there ^^^ say junior senators have no power? Note to dunce: How much 'power' does it take to VOTE?

The day is long gone when tenure and pork-capacity rules. Majority is what counts. The only way to smash the emperor is to control both houses and that's not got anything to do with tenure.

Sadly, when Thad's handlers wake him up to vote, he is more likely than not going to vote with Harry Reid. We don't need that type of majority in the Senate.

Whatever it takes to get a conservative voter in the Senate, we need to do. Cochran is a democrat vote. Watch for it.

Committees control what bills get out of committee to even have a vote.
Please see if you can find an old civics textbook to read the process involved in bringing a bill to a vote.
Learn how appropriations affect whether or not a bill, even one that is passed, gets to be implemented.
Please know that some bills " sound" wonderful like The Family Protection Act". Who'd be against that? Anyone who read the bill and realized it gave away our free airways! Are you too young to remember when radio and television were free save for buying a TV and radio? Remember when you could have you're own satellite dish?
So the language of bills is important and you can't rely on what someone else tells you the bill means.
It's a bit of trouble to be an informed voter but I think we owe it to those who died for our freedom.
And,if you can't make the time to be knowledgeable, then you owe it to them not to misinform.

Do we know how many votes in Hinds County were for the Third Congressional District race? Do these "volunteers" even know that in some precincts in Hinds County there was a Democrat run-off? Is it possible those 1500 votes are from that race?

Full moon coming.....feel something in the air.

321 and u dont have to be educated to vote. Just a thought.

321 and u dont have to be educated to vote. Just a thought.

You dont have to be educated to vote....sometimes just manipulated.

9:30 pm One claim from one anonymous McDaniel supporter who apparently doesn't have a cell phone to use to prove her claim that there was a sign saying there was a " Democratic runoff", who hasn't shown his or her face or offered her name, who isn't under oath, is not evidence or proof.

And, you've the math problem that the number of more Republican votes in the primary in each precinct doesn't exceed the number of Republican votes in the Presidential election in sufficient quantity to make the assumption that all the crossovers were " yellow dog Democrats". Moreover, even if they were, it's LEGAL.
And, your guy lost by more than 1500 in Hinds. Still doesn't make up the difference.

Please explain how you think this will turn out well? Will you have another run off? Do you think there won't be even MORE crossovers if you do?

Will you try to get enough votes thrown out to win? And, if you do, do you not think the resentment will be so high that your guy will lose the general election?

You really don't understand how that will affect turnout? Look at the President numbers in MS and do the math for how many non-Obama voters Childers would need! The percentage is not that much!
