McDaniel Has Edge in Mississippi Runoff

A new Chism poll in Mississippi finds Chris McDaniel (R) with a small lead over Sen. Thad Cochran (R) in the U.S. Senate runoff, 51% to 48%.

Key takeaway: “The race is fluid and the election is more than two weeks away. In this unusual campaign, we don’t know if and when another bombshell will drop and how it would impact voters.”
