Navy Reserve pilot and America First candidate for Mississippi’s 3rd Congressional District Michael Cassidy (R) said Thursday his campaign has caught his primary opponent Rep. Michael Guest’s (R-MS) campaign trying to coordinate with Democrats for the primary runoff June 28.

“Our campaign has received confirmation of what we have long suspected: that my opponent, Michael Guest, desperate after having finished an embarrassing second place in the primary, is now coordinating with Democrats to rig the run-off election this Tuesday,” Cassidy said in a statement.

Cassidy’s campaign obtained an email that showed an ally to Guest — Republican Party Chairman David Carter — bragged about having met with Democrat candidate and local leader Shuwaski Young about encouraging Democrats to come out and vote in the Republican runoff.

Carter’s June 21, 2022, email, a copy of which was viewed by Breitbart News, stated:

Even if you are a Democrat, you can vote in this primary for a Republican and then vote Democrat in November (let our Democrat neighbors know we need their help)

Ty and I met with Congressman Guest yesterday and his staff in Philadelphia. I met with Mr. Young (the Democrat candidate) on Sunday at the Mount Zion Church service.

Incumbent congressman Michael Guest voted for the J6 committee.

Tuesday is the Mississippi runoff where I hope he loses to Cassidy.

I would think he could sue the Republican party for working against Republicans.

I’m beginning to really hate run-offs. This is the same thing Thad Cochran did in Mississippi years ago.

Bush Leaguers frequently use Democrats to defeat conservatives, it’s one of their favorite tactics.

The GOPee is finally getting the message that they are Assistant ‘Rats.

It’s not the runoffs that are the problem, it’s not having CLOSED party primaries.

Runoffs are the antidote to the incumbent getting a bunch of no hopers in the race so he wins with under 50% of the vote based on name recognition alone. A runoff gives the people who hate the incumbent’s guts a chance to pool their votes against him. Without a runoff, Nancy Mace would have breezed through instead of facing a strong challenge from Katie Arrington.
