Incumbent Rep. Bennie Thompson (D) secured the Democratic nomination in the March 10 primary, defeating challengers in Mississippi's 2nd Congressional District, a majority-Black seat rated Solid Democratic by the Cook Political Report with a D+11 partisan voting index. GOP nominee Ron Eller advanced from his primary but faces a historically steep uphill battle against Thompson's long incumbency and strong performance among key voting blocs. Recent Republican proposals, including Gov. Tate Reeves' push to redraw maps and eliminate the district following a Supreme Court ruling, have intensified last week but remain mired in legal challenges under the Voting Rights Act and timeline pressures before the November 3 general election, sustaining trader consensus at 85% for Democrats.
