A.G. Hood is following a risky trend of state officials seemingly using their official roles to tilt election playing fields in their favor. We urge A.G. Hood to honor his oath to “do equal and impartial justice to all.” (via @PoliticsReid) #MSGov #MSpol

This is the latest in a trend among state officials of abusing their powers to try to win elections. Last fall, we took legal action to stop GA SoS Brian Kemp from exercising any further powers over the 2018 election in which he was a candidate. protectdemocracy.org/brown-v-kemp
A.G. Hood personally supervising an investigation of his political rival is the exact opposite of “equal and impartial justice.” Read our latest on the danger of election admins misusing their office to sway elections — or appearing to do so. #MSpol #MSGov clarionledger.com/story/opinion/…
The U.S. Constitution prohibits a gov't official from being a “judge in his own case” regardless of how fairly he/she rules. We urge A.G. Hood to immediately recuse himself from the investigation to “do equal and impartial justice to all.” #MSpol #MSGov
This issue crosses party lines. Last fall, we took legal action to stop GA Secretary of State Brian Kemp and FL Gov. Rick Scott from misusing their official offices to tilt election playing fields in which they were candidates. AG Hood shouldn’t follow in their footsteps. #MSpol

Mike Espy 🔁#Mississippi US Senator #Election2020-Nov-3 opposes a border wall, citing cost concerns.He opposes the Trump administration's family separation policy and said “a solution can be found "with the right combination of common sense and compassion." #DemSenate2020
Graham was once one of Trump’s sharpest critics (“I think he’s a kook,” in 2016), and is now one of his staunchest supporters, whether it comes to supporting his Supreme Court pick, or his golf game (“Anyone who says he’s not a great golfer, that’s fake news,” he said).(WaPo)
Sen. Lindsey Graham advises President Donald Trump to “stick to his guns” in the fight over funding for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and warned that giving in to Democrats' demands could be "the end of his presidency." (USAToday)
