Feb 20, 2023: Clarion Ledger: Early polling shows governor's race will be a challenge for Tate Reeves
Mississippi Republican Gov. Tate Reeves could be headed back to the banking world after the state’s November general election. One poll shows Reeves is in disfavor with many Mississippi voters, while another survey indicates he is trailing his main Democratic opponent for the state’s top job. A poll conducted in January by the Mississippi Today media operation and Siena College shows a majority (57-percent) of Mississippians would support “someone else” over Reeves' reelection bid for the new term in January. Siena is a private liberal arts college in New York founded by Catholic friars.
