Mississippi Megathread 2023

The key difference between KY-GOV and the presidential race next year, though, is that Beshear is quite popular (otherwise he wouldn’t have a chance.) Either way, KY has been far more open to electing Democrats, and even a very strong candidate couldn’t beat Reeves last time, so I’m not sure I really see this being another LA-GOV type situation unless there’s some huge development that damages Reeves quite a bit more.

It's not clear if they're concerned because Reeves actually looks like he's in danger of losing or because he's not ahead by nearly as much as they'd like. I would lean toward the latter, but a public poll might be nice.

The election gods have a cruel way of validating Atlas memes that I dismiss.  

First Laxalt loses by a Titanium Tilt D margin.

Now Reeves wins by the exact same margin as four years ago — it doesn’t get more inelastic than that!

Congrats, ShadowoftheWave.  

Wait until Brown and Rosen both win while Tester goes down by double digits (to Sheehy, who trounces Rosendale in the primary.)
