District 108 election less than a week away

In less than a week, voters in south Pearl River County will be casting their votes for the next Mississippi House District 108 representative.

Tuesday, July 25, a special election will be held to fill the vacancy left when long-time Representative Mark Formby accepted an appointment to the Mississippi Worker’s Compensation Commission in April of this year.

The three candidates vying for the State Representative title in this election are Tavish Cordero Kelly, Jerry W. Frazier and Stacey Hobgood Wilkes, none of whom have held public office before. As explained in previous coverage, because of the special nature of this election all candidates were required to run independently, without party affiliation. However all three candidates have made their political alignment known throughout this campaign.
