SUMMARY: The race for an incumbent Republican's seat in Mississippi's election is unusual because the Democratic nominee withdrew for medical reasons. Ty Pinkins is now running against Michael Watson and wants to expand voting access for all Mississippians. Mississippi is behind other states in implementing online voter registration and no excuse early voting. Pinkins criticizes Watson for not following the roadmap for voter access that other states have laid out. Watson encourages all Mississippians to vote and says that even if he doesn't win, he will have improved the office during his time in it.
