Mississippi State Senator Chris McDaniel introduced SB 2613 last month, but because it failed to advance, it is now dead. It would have provided that voter registration cards ask voters to choose a party, or independent status.
McDaniel ran in the Republican primary last year for U.S. Senate. He narrowly lost the runoff primary to incumbent Republican Senator Thad Cochran. McDaniel challenged the results in court, arguing that many people who voted in the Republican runoff primary were Democrats who had voted in the Democratic primary a few weeks earlier. However, he was unable to prove that there were enough such voters to have changed the outcome.
Chris McDaniel is still a “sore loser” after having lost the Primary Election last year. And it is good that he lost, as this man, based on his stated doctrines, would take the nation back to the 17th century.
He would probably be more at home with the Constitution[al] Party than the GOP.
I’m not a Republican, but thank goodness I know the difference between being realistic and being a fanatic. The people of Mississippi are commended for knowing the difference also.
