Secretary of State warns residents to beware of third-party mail over voter registration
SUMMARY: Mississippi officials, including Secretary of State Michael Watson, are alerting residents to questionable mail from The Voter Participation Center, a private entity. The mailers, misleadingly suggesting recipients may not be registered to vote, prompt them to submit a voter registration form, which isn't official government correspondence or a reflection of their current registration status. For accurate election information, Watson advises relying on trusted sources like local election officials or the Secretary of State's Office. Residents can verify their registration status online or contact their county circuit clerk for assistance. Watson emphasizes that official information should come from reliable government sources.

SUMMARY: Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves announced that the state's unemployment rate hit a record low of 3% in March, equaling the state's previous lowest percentage. Reeves credited the economic growth to attracting significant private sector investments and creating thousands of jobs. Among these investments, a $10 billion project from Amazon Web Services is expected to generate 1,000 jobs. The state has also been recognized for its quality pre-kindergarten education and has attained all-time high graduation rates. After a consistent decline in unemployment throughout 2023, Mississippi managed to reach and maintain this record low early in 2024.
