Mississippi Initiative to Make Some Local Offices Non-Partisan

Former Mississippi Representative Joseph Warren (D-Mt. Olive) is sponsoring an initiative to make county, justice court judges, and district attorney elections non-partisan. If enacted, the initiative would provide for elections in the general election for those offices, and no party labels would be on the ballot for those offices. If any candidate received a majority, he or she would be elected. Otherwise there would be a run-off after the general election.

Initiative 70, like all Mississippi statewide initiatives at this time, needs 86,183 valid signatures by October 2020.
