==Background==
==Background==
Situated in the [[Deep South]] as a [[Social conservatism|socially conservative]] [[Bible Belt]] state, [[Mississippi]] is one of the most Republican states in the country. No Democrat has been elected to the governorship since [[Ronnie Musgrove]] in [[1999 Mississippi gubernatorial election|1999]]. However, the state's Democratic Attorney General, Jim Hood, who had held his office since 2004 and had yet to lose a statewide election, put the Republicans' winning streak of four elections in a row to the test, as the race became unusually competitive. Reeves defeated Hood in the general election by a margin of 5.1%, making this the closest a Democrat had come to winning a Mississippi gubernatorial election since 1999. Hood pulled off the best performance by a Democrat since the [[2003 Mississippi gubernatorial election]], when fellow Democrat [[Ronnie Musgrove]] took 45.81% of the vote.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/11/5/20947980/mississippi-governor-results-tate-reeves-republican |title=Republican Tate Reeves wins a surprisingly close race, becoming Mississippi's next governor |last=Collins |first=Sean |date=2019-11-05 |work=Vox |access-date=2019-11-06 |language=en}}</ref> Hood flipped the counties of [[Chickasaw County, Mississippi|Chickasaw]], [[Lafayette County, Mississippi|Lafayette]], [[Madison County, Mississippi|Madison]], [[Panola County, Mississippi|Panola]], and [[Warren County, Mississippi|Warren]], which had all voted for Republican [[Donald Trump]] in the [[2016 United States presidential election in Mississippi|2016 United States presidential election]].


Uniquely among the states, the [[Constitution of Mississippi]] establishes a sort of [[electoral college]] at the state level. For the election of governor.

The 2019 Mississippi gubernatorial election took place on November 5, 2019, to choose the next governor of Mississippi.[1] Incumbent Governor Phil Bryant was ineligible to run for a third term due to term limits. The Democratic Party nominated incumbent Attorney General Jim Hood, the only Democrat holding statewide office in Mississippi; the Republican Party nominated incumbent Lieutenant Governor Tate Reeves. In the general election, Reeves defeated Hood by a margin of 5.08%, with Reeves significantly underperforming Donald Trump, who won the state by 17 points in 2016.

Background

[edit]

Situated in the Deep South as a socially conservative Bible Belt state, Mississippi is one of the most Republican states in the country. No Democrat has been elected to the governorship since Ronnie Musgrove in 1999. However, the state's Democratic Attorney General, Jim Hood, who had held his office since 2004 and had yet to lose a statewide election, put the Republicans' winning streak of four elections in a row to the test, as the race became unusually competitive. Reeves defeated Hood in the general election by a margin of 5.1%, making this the closest a Democrat had come to winning a Mississippi gubernatorial election since 1999. Hood pulled off the best performance by a Democrat since the 2003 Mississippi gubernatorial election, when fellow Democrat Ronnie Musgrove took 45.81% of the vote.[2] Hood flipped the counties of Chickasaw, Lafayette, Madison, Panola, and Warren, which had all voted for Republican Donald Trump in the 2016 United States presidential election.

Uniquely among the states, the Constitution of Mississippi establishes a sort of electoral college at the state level. For the election of governor. Article 5, Section 140 of the state constitution states that each state House district is assigned an electoral vote, and that a candidate running for governor must receive a majority of electoral votes (essentially, they must win a majority of state House districts) in addition to winning a majority of the popular vote in order to be elected governor.[3] Article 5, Section 141 of the state constitution states that if no candidate wins both a popular and electoral vote majority, the state House of Representatives is assigned to decide the winner, choosing from the two highest popular vote winners.[4] This provision came into play only one time in the state's history; Democratic candidate Ronnie Musgrove in the 1999 gubernatorial election garnered a plurality, but not a majority; the House selected Musgrove.[5]

In the lead-up to the election, controversy emerged over these constitutional provisions establishing a state system of electoral votes, with a federal lawsuit claiming the provisions are racially biased.[6] These provisions were put in place with the 1890 Mississippi Constitution, itself established by the segregationist Redeemers and overturning the Reconstruction-era 1868 Constitution, as part of Jim Crow Era policy to minimize the power of African Americans in politics.[6] Because of this, as well as present gerrymandering that packs African Americans into a small number of districts, the plaintiffs claim the provisions should be struck down on the basis of racial bias.[5]

On 3 November 2020, an amendment was passed removing the electoral college, with 79% of the vote.
