Here are the eligibility rules as explained by MS Secretary of State Hosemann --

Q: What are the rules for a party runoff election? Who can vote? Who cannot? The time the polls are open will remain the same?

A: For every election, polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Citizens who were eligible to vote in the June 3 primary election are eligible to vote in the June 24 primary runoff. If an eligible voter did not participate in the June 3 primary election, the voter may vote in either the Democratic or Republican primary runoff. The state of Mississippi does not allow “crossover” voting. Meaning, if a voter cast a ballot in the Democratic primary, he/she must cast a ballot in the Democratic primary runoff. If a voter cast a ballot in the Republican primary, he/she must cast a ballot in the Republican primary runoff.

Meaning, anyone who voted in the Dem primary, cannot now crossover and vote in the GOP runoff. However, any voter -- D or R -- who did not vote on June 3, can vote in the GOP runoff.

Then I’d say Thad’s strategy is a failing one. He’s appealing to the people who are categorically the least likely to turn out for him.

Thank you. That’s not as bad as it first sounded.

Thanks, that clears it up for anyone who reads it with even a bit of comprehension.
