Groups Scoring Cindy Hyde-Smith Show Votes More in Line With Liberals Than Conservatives."In office less than two months, Cindy Hyde-Smith has already been given failing grades by two major conservative groups.
NumbersUSA, a watchdog group seeking to stop illegal immigration, gave Cindy Hyde-Smith a failing grade of just 25%. By comparison, the same organization gave liberal Senator Bernie Sanders the same failing grade at 24%, as well as Mississippi Democratic Congressman Bennie Thompson at 22%, making Cindy Hyde-Smith nearly aligned ideologically on immigration with Mississippis only Democrat in Congress and the socialist Senator from Vermont. Conservative Senator Ted Cruz scored a 96%. ...
Mark Levins Conservative Review rates elected officials on a variety of issues like the budget, spending, the national debt, taxes, the economy, trade, education, foreign policy and defense. In the less-than-two months that Cindy Hyde-Smith has been in office, her Conservative Review score is 50% another failing grade. ..."

Chris McDaniel (Republican) on
On The Issues,
Ballotpedia, and
Conservative Review.
Also read 5 things to know about Chris McDaniel, GOP candidate for Senate in Mississippi. "... Here are five key takeaways from the interview:
1. McDaniel says that because he is the only Republican candidate in the race, Republicans have a unique opportunity to unify around his candidacy and avoid a situation like Alabama, where the Establishment went to war against Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala., and ultimately lost a senate seat to the Democrats. If we coalesce around my candidacy
then we avoid the bloodbath, we avoid intra-party conflict. And if we avoid it, the Democrat loses big-time in Mississippi, he said.
2. McDaniel responded to criticism from Mississippis governor that his switch to Cochrans open seat was opportunistic:
Its funny about that. When I was his Jones County chairperson when he ran for lieutenant governor, he didnt think I was opportunistic then. When I stood for him in the chamber and fought for his agenda with his top lieutenant in the chamber for four years, he didnt think I was opportunistic then. When I filed a lawsuit against Obamacare to render it unconstitutional because our state attorney general did not, and he was my client in that lawsuit, he didnt think I was opportunistic then. When I helped him get to governor, when I helped him campaign door-to-door [and] every other way, he didnt think I was opportunistic then. You know when he thought it, Daniel? When he finally met with Mitch McConnell.
3. Asked about his record fighting the Mississippi GOP establishment, McDaniel explained how sometimes the best way to be an effective senator is to be on defense, and that is to kill their bills behind the scenes or to kill their bills with procedural issues. McDaniel says he has worked to stop Republicans in Mississippi from increasing taxes and growing the size of government. Im just tired of Republicans campaigning like conservatives and then voting like Democrats, and people need to hear when they betray our principles, he said.
4. On government overreach: Its time to bring this Constitution back down to within its original boundaries. We cant do that with lip service. We cant do that with slick communications directors and press releases. It just takes fires. You gotta stand up, be heard, and hold Republicans accountable. If we hold our party accountable, we have the avenue by which to effectuate change.
5. Asked if there are any moral or ethical problems that would embarrass conservatives and sink McDaniels candidacy, he promised: I can tell you unequivocally that no, theres nothing out there thats going to be so devastating as to cause that type of embarrassment. ...

They don’t run by party ID in this special election apparently. It would be best if Hyde-Smith and McDaniel took first and second place so there is 0% probability of a Democrat taking the seat.
To: DIRTYSECRET
Read
this:
Also know the background about the
"ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS' " SMEARS AND LIES against Chris McDaniels Voting Records.
Cochran Camp Distorts Chris McDaniels Voting Records " ... So, let us deal with each of these latest smears in succession:The Smear: In 2003, Mississippi Republicans were working hard to nominate Haley Barbour in the Republican primary to defeat Democrat Governor Ronnie Musgrove. But Chris McDaniel voted in the Democrat primary instead.
The Truth: This is charge is not true, but no matter if it was. Haley Barbour was in no risk of losing the nomination whatsoever, but at this time, almost all of Jones Countys elected officials were Democrats, still beholden to Daddys Party. In local elections in 2003 there were some hotly contested races, especially for sheriff. Most everyone in the county voted on the Democratic side that year.
But what is more interesting is the political change in Jones County in subsequent elections. Chris McDaniel was one of the leaders who convinced many county elected officials to drop their history of allegiance to the Democratic Party and switch to the GOP. More than half of Jones Countys elected officials are now Republicans. This is true Republican leadership.
The Smear: In 2004, President George W. Bush was being challenged in the general election by liberal Democrat U.S. Senator John Kerry. Chris McDaniel did not vote in that election.
The Truth: George W Bush was unopposed in the 2004 primaries, neither US Senator was up for re-election, and there was no primary in the 4th Congressional District. A lot of folks didnt vote.
The Smear: In 2008, Republicans in Mississippi were nominating a candidate in the primary to take on Barack Obama in the Presidential election. Chris McDaniel did not vote in that election, either.
The Truth: Jones Countys Circuit Clerk, Bart Gavin, has signed an official document that Senator McDaniel did vote in the 2008 primary election. (McDaniels official voting record)
Some people suggest that
"Mr. Bryant had dutifully followed the orders of Senator Mitch McConnell" ..." and I believe that to be true.
Cindy Hyde-Smith is NOT REALLY a Republican.
She's a Democrat that turn Republican.
She was NEVER ELECTED.
She was APPOINTED.
You can either vote for the DemocRAT pretending to be a RINO, Ms. Hyde-Smith,
who votes with Schumer 50 percent of the time,
or you can
vote for a a LIFE-LONG REPUBLICAN, Chris McDaniel .
Burt remember,
EVERY VOTE FOR RINO Cindy Hyde-Smith
IS A VOTE FOR CHUCK SCHUMER !

Why is her last name hyphenated?
To: RushingWater
My guess is, when she married she added the name "Smith" to her maiden name, since
she's the daughter of Lorraine Hyde and the late Luther Hyde .
But
do NOT forget :
"... In 2008 when Hillary ran for President against Barack Obama, in a barnburner of a campaign that went down to the wire, Cindy Hyde-Smith, the lifelong conservative, supported Hillary.
Thats because she was a Democrat, only switching parties in 2010 to run for statewide office.
She has also been dishonest about it during the campaign. ...
... Lifelong conservatives dont support Hillary Clinton. Period.
Of course, we do know where Cindy Hyde-Smith is very much like Hillary Rodham Clinton: Her PAC was handed $250,000 by one of Hillarys top fundraisers
and she has supported gun control efforts in the past, which is a signature issue for the Clintons.
... there are major issues she left out, probably on purpose.
There is no mention of illegal aliens, amnesty, ICE, or the border wall.
Immigration is the single biggest issue of our time.Fail to reform it and its all over.
Furthermore, there was no mention of Trumps trade policy, entitlement reform, or structural reform within the federal government, like scaling back the out-of-control judiciary, abolishing the Department of Education, or instituting term limits for Congress.
Did she not want to anger the US Chamber ?
Is that why these issues were left off the table ?
With millions of dollars in ads coming from the Chamber for her campaign, you bet she doesnt want to anger them.
Shes their girl.
... She has no plan to balance the budget, reduce regulations, or grow the economy, issues you will find in Chris McDaniels Contract with Mississippi.He boldly signed onto Rand Pauls penny plan and spelled out his ideas on other major issues facing Mississippi and the nation.
McDaniel doesnt care if the Chamber hates him.
Hes for the people of Mississippi.
But not Cindy Hyde-Smith. She not only voted against the penny plan to balance the budget, she ridiculed it, siding with the Establishment in denouncing it as a political stunt and sideshow.
This is the same silly rhetoric we heard from Thad Cochran.
If Cindy Hyde-Smith cant agree to cut one percent from the federal budget every year until it is balanced, then she is not serious about balancing the budget.
Say what you will, but the facts are beyond dispute.
Chris McDaniel is the only true conservative in the special election for US Senate and the only one willing to stand up for real solutions to real problems.
Hes for Mississippi, not the Chamber of Commerce. ..."

To: SMGFan
I do not mean this to be sarcastic, but our dog could beat McDaniel. He is a niche candidate and it seems he will never rise above that.
I will say that his supporters are passionate, so he’s got that going for him. I don’t ever see him rising to the national stage politically.

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE that ALL THOSE DEMOCRATS, who voted for Thad Cochran on June 24, 2014, will be voting for that R.I.N.O.
OR do you think they will be voting for the
Democrat Mike Espy ?
Only a voter who has no memory at all, will vote AGAINST all their Republican PRINCIPLES for that RINO and Hillary Supporter, Cindy Hyde-Smith .
THEY MAY STILL THINK that the once Democrat Cindy Hyde-Smith is still a Democrat,

What can one expect from her Dem challenger?
For that matter, what does the douche-bag that beat Judge Moore in Alabama have as a record so far?
Trump understands that 46% is better than 0% which is what we can expect if we lose any seats....those who insist on all or nothing in all they do will end up starving to death in short order.

I’m just going to disagree. McDaniel doesn’t have anything but a a small vocal base. He is also, not extremely likable which is why he will stay a state politician only, in my opinion.

Don't get me started on that Alabama STEALING OF AN ELECTION that everyone wants to cover up !
Judge Roy Moore won that election.
Did you watch the live coverage of the vote count?
Did you watch the youtube.com video that shows the reduction in the total count of over 2,000 votes (
16,028 dropped to 14,321 Roy Moore Write-in votes) of the COMPUTER TOTAL for JUDGE Roy Moore in just one minute, from 6:58 to 6:59 of the LIVE running voting COMPUTER COUNT video Seth Abramson posted, that he shows in his own video ?
Start at 4 minutes 33 seconds into
THE VIDEO and go until 16:20, the end of the video.
Tell me ...
WHEN does a running total vote count GO DOWN, and NOT UP ?
The live feed from the Alabama Secretary of State Live Reporting of the Alabama US Senate General Election VERIFIED the voter fraud, and ALL the networks showed it in LIVE TIME.
Judge Roy Moores Write-In Vote totals WENT DOWN from 24,000 to 16,000, and then WENT DOWN to 14,000 votes !
You want to explain JUST HOW that happens with the time stamped screen shots,
without being FRAUD by someone manipulating the totals in LIVE TIME ?
That's 10,000 write-in votes right there ....THAT WERE FLIPPED FROM JUDGE Roy Moore, TO Doug Jones; making a difference of 20,000 Votes stolen. And that's ASSUMING that Judge Roy Moore got ZERO more votes while the "Vote Flipping" was being done !
Research
Bev Harris.
Watch this video about the same voting machine software that Alabama uses :
Things have changed!
Bennie Smith, a Memphis computer programmer, discovered HOW this is done through a
" ... a GEMS tabulatorfor Global Election Management Systemwhich is a personal computer installed with Diebold software that sits in a windowless room in the countys election headquarters.
The tabulator is the brains of the system.
It monitors the voting machines, sorts out which machines have delivered data and which havent, and tallies the results.
As voting machines check in and their votes are included in the official count, each machines status turns green on the GEMS master panel.
A red light means the upload has failed.
At the end of Memphiss election night in October 2015, there was no indication from the technician running Shelby Countys GEMS tabulator that any voting machine hadnt checked in or that any votes had gone missing, according to election commission e-mails obtained by Bloomberg Businessweek.
Yet as county technicians followed up on the evidence from Smiths poll-tape photo, they discovered more votes that never made it into the election night count, all from precincts with large concentrations of black voters. ... "
Diebold Election Systems changed its name in 2006 to
Premier Election Solutions.
Bloomberg's article titled
How to Protect Against Election Day Hacking gives more proof of this by Memphis computer programmer Bennie Smith.
"... The method Smith used to catch the problem should be a playbook for any candidate, party or concerned citizen worried about the accurate tallying of their votes:Smith snapped some pictures of printed voting tallies (known as poll tapes) at a high-turnout polling location and then compared the results there to the electronic tabulations.
This is a very good, if labor-intensive, way to check to ensure that votes are being counted correctly.
Smith has created a proof-of-concept program called Fraction Magic, showing how corrupt officials could tamper with GEMS to manipulate election outcomes.

This map shows all the locations across the U.S. that use the GEMS vote-tabulation system as of Nov 2016.
... "

Judge Roy Moore won that election.I watched and had the same thoughts.
Hillary also won the popular vote - but she ain't in the WH....do as you will - I'm going with the odds towards helping Trump help the People.
