IMO Espy seems more likely. Little attention is paid to Mississippi because it’s so ruby red presidentially, but the high turnout and demographics could allow Espy to eke out a win. Even Jones has an outside but remote chance.

Jones albeit Espy will get one more % point (39 to 38)

Epsy, in the same way that Republicans are more likely to flip NM than OR.

Espy due to demographics, but neither is likely to happen.

Jones. Mississippi is too polarized.

Both are going to lose, but Jones has a slightly greater chance to win than Espy because of two reasons: 1) he's white, and 2) he's an incumbent.

Espy has the benefit of an electorate that's more demographically favorable and his opponent being asleep at the wheel.

Also Tuberville doesn't have incumbency to hide a general lack of talent.

Tuberville is a useless dink, while Hyde-Smith is just pure trash.  Not the point of this thread, but I actually would rather see Hyde-Smith lose.  Jones probably has a slightly better shot.

The fundamentals would suggest Jones because of his incumbency, but we've had very little recent polling out of MS so there's a bit more uncertainty.
