MS-01: The Other 4/22 election

[RBH]

The catch: there's a runoff on April 1st between Holland and Childers, and between Davis and McCullough.

And I don't know if either one can get themselves off the ballot between 4/1 and 4/22.

But if nobody wins a majority on 4/22, then there's a runoff on 5/13.

Maps for the 3/11 primaries

Democratic Primary
Childers - 41.51%
Holland - 30.78%
Coleman - 13.07%
Neely - 10.58%
Hurt - 4.07%



Republican Primary

McCullough - 38.88%
Davis - 36.79%
Russell - 24.33%



Speaking as a partisan, I would prefer a Davis win in the runoff, because McCullough is going to draw more votes in Northeast Mississippi, and DeSoto will vote Republican no matter what. So Davis would probably fare worse in a general election than McCullough.

Any thoughts on Childers from the natives?
