Top Mississippi Republicans Fail to Acknowledge Biden Victory as Fitch Joins Trump Lawsuit
Mississippi re-elected Hyde-Smith, a Republican, to her first full six-year term in the U.S. Senate. Her Democratic opponent, Mike Espy, conceded last night, congratulating his Republican opponent.
Nine years since the Mississippi gut-punch to the Personhood effort, the possibility that President Donald Trump could replace the court’s late liberal stalwart, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, with a conservative jurist has given anti-abortion groups renewed hope.
Today, former President Barack Obama cited that progress and urged the Magnolia State to do something it has not done since Reconstruction: Elect a Black man to the U.S. Senate.
U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith signaled today that she does not plan to join her Democratic opponent, former U.S. Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy, for a debate.
The day before President Donald Trump announced Amy Coney Barrett as his U.S. Supreme Court pick, U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith told a radio host that Republican senators would come with “guns loaded” and “packed” to ensure the president’s nominee is confirmed.
Canadian, Russian, South African and Ukrainian models appear in U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith’s first 2020 campaign ad for her Mississippi campaigns—but no Mississippians. Instead, the ad uses stock footage from foreign production companies as the senator talks about the work she has done to bring jobs and economic growth to Mississippians.
Mike Espy, a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Mississippi, is worried that as many as 600,000 Mississippians could lose health-insurance coverage as President Donald Trump continues his effort to remake the U.S. Supreme Court.
Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Mike Espy raised more money on Saturday than any Mississippi candidate for federal office has raised in any one day in history, the campaign said. The record-breaking flurry of campaign donations came in the wake of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death and President Donald Trump’s vow to appoint a replacement.
