Brandon Presley conceded to the incumbent Mississippi governor, Tate Reeves, on Tuesday night after the Republican managed to hold on to his position.
During the state’s only gubernatorial debate this season, Reeves and Presley, who is related to Elvis Presley, had exchanged verbal blows, with Reeves alleging that Presley had been bought by out-of-state, liberal political interest groups. Presley hammered Reeves on his and his family’s alleged involvement in the state’s ongoing corruption scandal.
