More on DOJ monitoring of Mississppi elections today
From the Associated Press:
"The U.S. Justice Department said it will monitor the primaries in 11 of Mississippi's 82 counties to ensure black voters' rights are protected. Federal observers will be in Bolivar, Clay, Copiah, Humphreys, Jefferson Davis, Noxubee, Panola, Quitman, Sunflower, Tallahatchie and Wilkinson counties. Ten of the 11 counties are majority black. Only Panola is not."
