In case you’ve missed the seemingly constant attack ads and political commercials, here’s a reminder that Tuesday is Primary Election Day in Mississippi.

From the state’s governor to a county’s supervisor, this is leading up to the “major one” when it comes to elections for local, regional, and state leadership. Tuesday is the day voters will nominate people from each major political party to face each other in the November General Election. Should no one receive a majority of the vote Tuesday, there will be a Primary Election Runoff in three weeks.

Since Mississippi has closed primaries, Tuesday’s election will certainly be missing some names seen in newspaper ads and television commercials, depending on which ballot one chooses. Voters must select either a Republican or a Democrat ballot, and independent candidates won’t show up on the ballots until the General Election in November.

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. If you haven’t checked since redistricting, be sure to click here to find current polling places. Voters in line by 7 p.m. must be allowed to vote. Also, don’t forget an ID.
