Wasserman:

I've seen enough: Tate Reeves (R) wins reelection in #MSGOV, defeating Brandon Presley (D).

Wasserman:

Truly puzzled by the incongruity of some of the numbers I'm seeing in #Mississippi counties. Looking good for Reeves (R) overall, but there have to be tallying errors in a few places. #MSGOV

Wasserman:

Not sure if this is an error, but a great result for Presley (D) in Coahoma Co. (Clarksdale) if it's true: reportedly wins it 76%-23%. Hood (D) won it 71%-28% in '19. #MSGOV

☹️Wasserman:

Best result for Reeves (R) yet: he wins Calhoun Co. 64%-35%. Carried it 59%-40% in '19 (it was next door to Hood's hometown). Looking better for the incumbent as the night goes on. #MSGOV

Wasserman:

Based on what I'm seeing, #MSGOV looks closer than it was in '19, but still a tough task ahead for Presley (D).

Wasserman:

First super-red county complete in #MSGOV: George Co. Reeves (R) wins it 83%-16%, up from 82%-17% in '19. BUT turnout there appears down ~15% from '19. Mixed bag.
