Thinks Hosemann should resign
I urge all citizens to call Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann’s office at 601-359-1350 to demand he resign. He should not oversee his own election for lieutenant governor. Also, he should not travel around Mississippi as the secretary of state while promoting himself as a candidate.
This is not a partisan request, and it’s not a suggestion that Mr. Hosemann has behaved inappropriately to date.
Let’s avoid the fiasco of Secretary of State Brian Kemp of Georgia and the black eye he gave that state’s reputation in 2018 when he refused to resign while running for governor.
