OXFORD, Miss. — In Mississippi’s first gubernatorial election since the fall of Roe v. Wade’s — which shuttered clinics across the South and drove pregnant women across state lines for care — abortion rights aren’t on the ballot. Republican Gov. Tate Reeves and his Democratic challenger, Brandon Presley, both support the state’s sweeping abortion ban.
Presley is trying to break this grip and has drawn support from U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, the most prominent Democratic official in the state, as well as Morgan Freeman, who grew up in Mississippi, and author John Grisham. While Presley trailed Reeves in a recent Magnolia Tribune/Mason–Dixon poll, he has surpassed the governor’s campaign donations by more than $5 million this year, including a more than $5.8 million boost from the Democratic Governors Association.
