The Hinds County Election Commission expects to complete their affidavit ballot curing process by Monday tonight or Tuesday morning, Election Commission receptionist and Hinds County Receiving Clerk Shirley Harrison told the Mississippi Free Press on Monday. 

Affidavit voters who did not bring a photo ID to the polls still have until Tuesday afternoon to bring their ID to Hinds County Circuit Court Clerk Zack Wallace. Wallace’s Jackson office is located in the basement level of the Hinds County Courthouse at 407 E Pascagoula Street. 

Hinds County published their election results, excluding affidavit votes, shortly after Election Day. Those preliminary results can be found here.
