I’m going to go out on a limb here. No party in first sentence means he’s a Democrat. Correct?
The search is on for party affiliation...…...Democrat, already knew when it wasn’t in the headline.
Figured since it wasn’t mentioned, the husband and wife had different names, and a younger wife, that it was pretty likely that... YEP, part of the netnuts party.

The media doesn’t even try to hide their bias a little bit.
I’m sure Trump’s “racist” tweets drove him to this act.
It took half the article before Dimocrat was mentioned.
Posts BUMP!
And to think, his political career was just getting started.
More evidenced of the need for gun control — of the right kind. Democrats shouldn’t be allowed to have guns.
Black democrat. This doesn’t mean e won’t win the election.
oh wait... He’s dead?
Don’t worry, his wife can serve in his place.
Is he still on the ballot?
Who gets his seat if he wins since often the wife “inherits” a dead male office holder’s seat?
Finally the dead voters have one of their own to support
Nearly every liberal I've had the displeasure to know has a barely controlled violent temper, sometimes well concealed, sometimes not so much.
Like most of people, they think all other people are just like them.
They know what they would do if I (they) had a rocket launcher.
They assume we would too.
Small wonder the want us disarmed!
” ... Carl Robinson, 43, and Latoya Thompson ... “
I read the wife’s name and knew they were dems.
Also, I wonder why his wife does not have the same last name?
would it be mean of me to say maybe now we can win that seat

Robinson was a Democrat running for state representative in Mississippi, officials confirmed. According to Robinson’s campaign Facebook page, he was running in District 5 for the upcoming election.
According to the Miss SOS he was one of three dems running for the seat including the incumbent Democrat John Faulkner. There are no repubs running so it is likely a Dem stronghold. I have always advocated getting republicans on the ballot for every district as you never know what could happen to the opponents during the campaign. Would not apply in this case.
