>>The problem with what you wrote...<<
And the problem with what you wrote is that Mississippi has an open primary. If (turning out to be a big “if”, but if) a DEM voter chose to vote in the GOP primary on June 3rd, then that voter was entitled to vote in the runoff election.
It does appear, however, that there is a record of who voted DEM and who voted GOP on June 3rd.
Another Note: The Dem Poll Book being shown in the photo isn’t necessarily that record, since it appears to just record whether a person voted. From what Black Agnes wrote (post #277) the records do exist, however.

NO, NO, NO. It’s not a record of whether a person voted...it’s a record of which registered voters WERE GIVEN A DEMOCRAT PRIMARY BALLOT ON JUNE 23RD. It’s a little hard to believe, but not everyone who is given a ballot votes; sometimes (but rarely) they simply walk out of the precinct door without voting (late to work? hot date?).
