The Mississippi Supreme Court holds oral arguments in Berger v Barbour at 11:30 a.m. on September 17 (Wednesday). This is the case on whether the Class I U.S. Senate seat should be at the bottom of the ballot, or whether it should be near the top, next to the Class II U.S. Senate race and just below the presidential part of the ballot.

The Class I U.S. Senate is very close. Democrats charge that the Governor wants that race at the end of the ballot, hoping that many voters will not see it.
