I just found this, regarding cross over voting in run offs, from Pearl Cty MS...


PRIMARY ELECTIONS

Party candidates are nominated through primary elections. A voter may vote in either party’s primary, and cast a ballot for that party’s nominees to the general election. If no candidate receives a majority of the votes in a primary, a run-off is held between the top two vote-getters.

A voter who votes in the primary of one party may not “crossover” to vote in the run-off of another party.
