Anti-incumbent sentiment throws out some veterans
The Clarion-Ledger, 8/8/7 “Katrina appears to be claiming another victim,” said Joe Parker, political science professor at the University of Southern Mississippi.

McMillin prevails
The Clarion-Ledger, 8/8/7 The seemingly unbeatable Malcolm McMillin will keep his office as Hinds County sheriff for at least another four years.

Liveblogging the election (halfheartedly)
I will be checking in & out through the evening. The one thing that I will say straight away that is very disappointing was that I was not allowed to vote for uncontested downticket races in the primary. That is a great gauge to see how candidates carry from the top. I know I have…
