Now unless McDaniel is the one appointed to fill Cochran’s unexpired term [almost zero
chance that will happen] whoever is appointed will not be able to run in November. The
Republican candidate would be McDaniel.

I'd like to see the MS Code that explains that situation. I've looked but can't
find anything as to how or who is placed on the ballot for the Nov. general election.

Just checked Drudge and Fox News: there's not a word about Mississippi. When even somewhat friendly news outlets are blacked out, it appears that the GOPe/'Rat fix may be in.

Bastards.

REPORT from credible source: Cochran is planning to resign if a special election is called..

Yesterday, I questioned whether the person tweeting this in haste meant to say "concede" rather than "resign."

In the context of the primary, conceding makes more sense. Resigning and sending in a lame-duck seat-warmer over the summer who can't run in November makes no sense.

This whole debacle shows how desperate the GOPe is to prevent the Cruz-Lee caucus from receiving any new members...

Thad Cochran is scum, the GOPe supporting him are scum, the Parasite Class voters to whom they pandered are scum, and crimes have been committed. People should end up in prison over this.

Thad Cochran delenda est.

I don’t think Cochran has the capacity to be thinking of resigning. Whoever controls him is telling him to resign.

What came out of that press conference that was scheduled for 2PM CST?

If treason is a capital offense, so should voter fraud carry the same penalty. They both undermine the very structure and trust of the power of government.

May it shake all over America .... yet, have been told to be cool and relax .... LOL.

McDaniel is starting to appear not only tenacious but a competent leader. He couldn’t be doing this without committed support.

[RedMDer]

Why is the Leftist MSM virtually silent about all of this?
I would think they would love to portray the GOP as corrupt or maybe they too do not want McDaniel and by reporting it would help McDaniel and they want to slam Cochran in the general.

For all of us praying and hoping here what exactly constitutes an illegal vote...and I do mean exactly? Please no smart arses here. So 4900 votes had what characteristics?

[Gene Eric]

>> 3300 illegal votes so far, we may have met that threshold.

Oddly doubtful given the toothy voracity of the law.

[NFHale]

If this becomes reality...

... I might actually start to believe that The Good Guys really DO win in the end, again.

Maybe.

Any possibility of Mr. McDaniel adopting a strategy from the Lisa Murkowski playbook and go Independent during the general election? The dems would be less likely to cross over thinking they may have a chance at the seat. The conservatives could coalesce around McDaniel, leaving the rino voting portion of the GOP on their own? Just a thought.
