The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, a national Democratic Party-affiliated organization that supports statehouse races, announced Wednesday that it will help five candidates competing in Mississippi’s special legislative elections this fall.
The five Democratic candidates the organization is supporting are:
“The DLCC is proud to support these five Mississippi Democrats running strong campaigns to challenge the toxic GOP power in their state,” said Heather Williams, president of the DLCC.
Isom and DuPree are the Democratic nominees seeking to win newly redrawn Senate districts with no incumbent in the race. Black and Crosby are trying to topple Republican incumbents. Jackson is a Democratic incumbent attempting to ward off a Republican challenger.
It’s unclear how much money the organization will funnel to the five candidates, but one of the group’s goals is to signal to potential donors that these Democratic nominees are competitive.
In 2023, the organization also promoted a slate of Democratic candidates seeking to defeat incumbent Republicans in Mississippi. None of those candidates were successful. But this year’s special elections could be more consequential because of a federal court order that determined state lawmakers diluted Black voting strength when they redrew state legislative districts in 2022.
