There is no Democratic divide in Mississippi over Clinton
While not all Republicans in Mississippi — and the U.S. for that matter — are enamored of Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton is the obvious choice of Democrats. Even Bernie Sanders, the Democratic socialist who fought a hard and sometimes bitter battle with Clinton, has endorsed the party’s presumptive nominee for president.
The newly minted head of the state Democratic Party is solidly behind Clinton as well.
“She’s got that experience. Now more than ever, folks want to see that experience,” said Chairman Bobby Moak, who took over from Rickey Cole, another Clinton supporter.
That experience, Moak said, can be seen in her resume. Clinton is a graduate of Yale University Law School. She served as the first lady from 1993 to 2001 when her husband, Bill, was president. She then served as a U.S. senator during the George W. Bush presidency and was the secretary of state in the Obama administration’s first term.
