The redistricting plot thickens in the Magnolia State.
Lt. Gov. Hosemann announces his select committee on redistricting, and none of the selectees are from our North MS/Delta area. He clearly states congressional, legislative, and state Supreme Court districts.
Delbert Hosemann@DelbertHosemann
Today, I am announcing the formation of a Senate Select Committee on Redistricting and Reapportionment following the Supreme Court’s ruling in Louisiana v. Callais and the Governor’s decision to rescind the upcoming special session on Supreme Court redistricting. This committee’s work will begin immediately in preparation for the 2027 legislative session or sooner should the Governor call us back in session. I have full confidence that this committee, led by Senator Kirby, will meet in the coming months to gather information, review data, and evaluate potential future redistricting of congressional, legislative, and State Supreme Court districts in light of the Callais decision. To read more about this committee, visit: ltgovhosemann.ms.gov/lieutenant-gov…

HEADS UP! Multi-car accident on I-240 Northbound just before the E Pearson Ave bridge. Already looks like traffic is backed up to the exit at E Brooks Rd. Be aware as you make your commute into work this morning.

@tatereeves told @supertalk yesterday that it would be hard to redraw MS's congressional map in time for midterms.
Shad White thinks there's still time.🔽🔽
Folks are going to be holding their breath to see what the coming weeks hold.
Shad White@shadwhite
I haven’t announced what I’m running for yet, but if were governor, I would 1. Call a special session to redistrict Bennie Thompson out 2. Declare a state of emergency and ban all foreign ownership of farmland 3. Based on all the audits I’ve done, start immediately cutting the fat in state government (sell the state plane, freeze new state car purchases and office leases until those are right-sized, etc.) 4. Call for a freeze on property taxes 5. Issue an executive order banning DEI as unconstitutional and that would be the first hour.

Clarification: This guy is not walking free. He's going to get a retrial for the double murder he was convicted of. He's also serving 40 years for stealing millions from his clients. This is a wild new chapter in the Murdaugh story.

This was only a matter of time.
After a ruling from the 5th Circuit Court District this week, Mississippi no longer needed a special session to redraw its state Supreme Court district lines. Will he announce a redraw for congressional districts in the coming days?
Governor Tate Reeves@tatereeves
Just to clarify, I said I expect lawmakers to redraw congressional lines BETWEEN NOW and 2027 elections! I also expect them to redraw legislative and Supreme Court lines between now and 2027 elections!
