Flowers won 43% of the vote on June 7th in the 4-man Primary race, with Eller coming in second at 33%.  Flowers was the Republican nominee in the 2nd District in the 2020 cycle and believes his experience then will help him in this year’s General Election versus Democrat incumbent Congressman Bennie Thompson.

Flowers also told Y’all Politics on Tuesday that Michael Carson, one of the other Primary candidates, had endorsed his campaign in the runoff.
