Mississippi's Secretary of State says the 2025 legislative maps no longer apply and clerks went back to the 2022 maps. The state House and Senate districts here come from Census files that still show the 2025 lines, so yours may differ. Your circuit clerk can confirm it. Map in force
The date is for the whole chamber. Last contest in this district on file: 2023.
