The Mississippi Democratic Party received a shock this week when its favored candidate lost in the primary to a truck driver who didnt spend a single cent on his campaign and says that he was too busy to vote for himself.
46-year-old Robert Gray won the gubernatorial primary with more than 50 percent of the vote. He carried all but three of the states counties.
He got a call from his mother on election day who was excited that she voted for a candidate with her sons nameshe didnt know it was actually him because he hadnt told any of his family or friends that he was even running.

>>He didnt even vote for himself...LOLOOOLOL.....<<
And that’s not even the funniest part. His mother called him to tell him she voted for a guy with the same name as him. She didn’t even know he was running and that she’d voted for her own son for Governor of Mississippi.
Hilarious.
By the way, one thing that’s almost certain to come out of this is a much larger respect for the idea of being first on the ballot.
Well, he’s a Democrat! All he needs is a pen and a phone!
I’m confused...is this racist or sexist?

The white Democrats have lost control of the party. It’s not about gender, it’s all about ethnicity. Hillary’s defeat in 2008 was a foreshadowing of it. Funny that all the Democrat Presidential candidates are white.
“Sounds like the democrat party is as useless in Mississippi as the republican is in...” America
Fixed it for you.
Most of the Repub candidates were selected by the machine.
The did what they were paid to do
If I was him I would go back and load my truck and keep on truckin.
This is exactly why freepers in every state need to register as democrat candidates in primaries in every state.
Their candidate won in the Senate last year.
Me too.
The pic of Slater in #8 - - reminds me of a young madeliene notbright.
It’s time for two countries. I wish I lived in a conservative state like that instead of pinko-commie Kalifornia. I would love for my neighbors and co-workers mostly to all make sense when they speak for a change. I hate hearing the blind Dem-Rat talking points all the time.
As soon as hitlery admits she's a dike she'll get the nomination. Anything different for America's idiot voters.
