I don’t know if they lost the Senate... projections had them with a two-seat victory... but I think they just handed Mississippi to the Democrats. I think most of the base voters will just sit home. Mississippi forbids a write-in campaign, so, this was quite literally a conspiracy by the establishment to fix the candidate. I think base voters in MS are so disgusted at this point, they no longer care who wins.
I’m not aware of a write-in campaign being forbidden.
What is forbidden is him running for another party. Ie, sore loser law. He can’t do that.
We plan to write him in ourselves in NOV.

Looks like I’ll just leave the sinatorial bit blank IF I spend $4 gas to drive to the polls.
Hope all those new GOP supporters return to vote for Thad in November. I won’t be voting for him regardless.
Cite the law.
Does Mississippi forbid defeated primary candidates from running as an Independent? It worked for RINO Murkowski in Alaska. It would be nice to give GOPe a taste of its own medicine.
