Incumbent Rep. Bennie Thompson's decisive March 10 Democratic primary victory over challengers Evan Turnage and Pertis Flowers has solidified his path in the solidly Democratic MS-02, where the partisan lean exceeds D+20 based on recent presidential voting. Republican nominee Ron Eller, who won his uncontested primary, faces steep historical barriers in this majority-minority district, rated Solid Democratic by the Cook Political Report. Trader consensus at 85.5% for Democrats reflects Thompson's longevity since 1993 and weak GOP performance here, despite fresh talk of post-election redistricting by Gov. Tate Reeves—efforts Thompson vowed on May 7 to fight "until Hell freezes over," though maps are locked for the November 4 general election. No recent polls show shifts.
