Each row is a county-allocated estimate of U.S. House votes for this district — county returns apportioned onto its boundary, not precinct-counted. “Vote lead” is the estimated local lead here, not necessarily the winner of the full contest.
With a 2024 presidential margin of just R+0.5, this district sits well outside Mississippi's typical partisan range, making it a bellwether for statewide shifts in competitive suburban or mixed-demographic terrain.

A population of 25,149, a 56% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $49,212 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of State House District 32 and State House District 62.

Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
