Officials stuck at impasse
The Clarion-Ledger, 3/30/9 Mississippi lawmakers preparing to recess the legislative session are in danger of repeating a familiar pattern: leaving the state Capitol without solving some key problems.

Jackson: Issues simple, remain same
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 3/30/9 Jackson has a lot of candidates running for mayor and City Council. The sheer number can make the election confusing to voters.
