Prior to the runoff elections in August, more than 1.8 million Mississippians were registered to vote. According to the Secretary of State’s Office, census data estimates the state’s eligible voting-age population to be about 2.2 million.

Mississippi is one of just three states electing a new Governor in 2019. The Magnolia state will also elect a new Attorney General, Lt. Governor, Treasurer and Secretary of State. Several other statewide and local races will also be on the ballot for the general election.
