Nov 13, 2011: Daily Kos: Republican MS State Senate
SD-02 Bill Stone (D-Ashland)
Incumbent Democratic Sen. Stone easily won re-election by 40+ points in 2011. However, his district is drastically altered to accommodate the AA-majority 10th district. He picks up a lot of new Republican voters in Panola, Quitman, and Lafayette counties while losing heavily Dem areas in Marshall and Benton Counties. The district becomes 12 points more Republican, going from 49% McCain to 61% McCain. I’m not sure if Sen. Stone can survive this district. Tossup.
