From the Quill
Lloyd Gray, editor of the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal in Tupelo puts Greg Davis’ win over Glenn McCullough in the Republican run-off for the First Congressional District into perspective: “If the district had been 22 counties instead of 23, McCullough would have won in a blowout. He got 62.7 percent of the vote outside of DeSoto County. Problem was, the DeSoto vote was almost one-third of the total districtwide, and Davis held a 6,334-vote margin in his home county.”
