In Mississippi, today is the deadline for voters who had photo ID issues on Election Day to return to the circuit clerk’s office and present a valid ID to “cure” their ballots.

It’s also the deadline for late arriving mail-in absentee ballots to arrive at the clerk’s office.

As always, great analysis from MS Today Politics Editor Geoff Pender:

“Win or lose, Mississippi voters sent Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith and state Republican leaders some messages.”

Geoff Pender: A blessing from Trump and pledge to blindly follow him was a Willy Wonka golden ticket for a Mississippi Republican politician. Until it wasn't.
