In the Mississippi primary that played out yesterday, Mike Espy has won the right for a Round 2 with now-Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), having lost the special election to her in 2018 by a relatively large margin of 7 points.
Now we shift focus to November. This campaign will decide what we want the next decade to look like for Mississippi. #MSSen https://t.co/HITdZmoqDv

Mississippi may be the most reliably Republican state in the nation, so Espy can only be hopeful, not confident. The latest poll I can find suggests Hyde-Smith has a comfortable 10 point lead.
