However over the previous month, there have been some intriguing developments in Republican Gov. Tate Reeves’s reelection bid which have brought on us to reevaluate our score.”

“The perfect information for Reeves is that he prevented a serious major challenger, with Invoice Waller Jr., a former state Supreme Courtroom chief justice, passing on a rematch of their 2019 intraparty battle. That may permit the incumbent to show his consideration to November—which can be wanted after Democrats landed a robust recruit in Public Service Commissioner Brandon Presley.”
