Vast differences in two District 16 candidates

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal, 10/16/7

Watching the race for House District 16 almost seems like a sporting event.

In one corner, incumbent Steve Holland of Plantersville has spent nearly a quarter century in the position. He’s a populist Democrat who does not suffer opposition lightly.

In the other corner is Everett Dutschke, a Republican from Tupelo. He says he believes Mississippi is a conservative state and needs no Democrats in office.
