Election Day in Mississippi

Election Day is here in the Magnolia State.

Polls have been open for hours now as voters locally and in every corner of the state make their voices heard.

Polls close at 7 tonight.

We’ll be closely watching the highly contested race between Incumbent Governor Tate Reeves and his Democratic challenger Brandon Presley along with a few contested county-wide races in Stone County, Harrison County, and Hancock County.

Our team coverage will pick up this evening with Ansley Brent and Lori Buhring in studio and our team of reporters out in the field with local updates.

Be sure to tune into WXXV News 25 at 9 on FOX and 10 on NBC after the polls close for live election returns and analysis from political analyst Howie Morgan.
