Hey, Kendall here.
As Team Espy’s Research Director, I’ve been spending a lot of time looking into our far-right opponent Cindy Hyde-Smith’s history, and let me tell you, she knows how to make headlines for all the wrong reasons.
Hyde-Smith isn’t known for her record in the Senate or any achievements she’s made for the people of Mississippi. She’s known for these headlines:
“Mississippi GOP Sen. Hyde-Smith Calls Voter Suppression ‘Great Idea.’”
– NBC News, 11/15/18
“Cindy Hyde-Smith Jokes About Sitting On ‘Front Row’ Of Public Hanging”
– Clarion Ledger, 11/11/18
“Photo Surfaces Of Cindy Hyde-Smith Posing With Confederate Artifacts”
– CNN, 11/20/18
Yep, those are photos that Hyde-Smith posted on Facebook herself. Our opponent thinks the confederacy was Mississippi “at its best!” Enough said.
The choice is clear: Hyde-Smith wants to keep this state stuck in the past, while Mike Espy wants to move it forward.
Help us continue to spread the word about our far-right opponent and get out the vote for Mike before November’s general election. Make a contribution of $10 or whatever you can before our mid-month deadline this Thursday:
