Former Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy is aiming for a rematch of a U.S.
Senate race that he lost to
Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith in Mississippi in 2018, in hopes of reversing the outcome.
Friday was the deadline for candidates to qualify for Mississippi's March 10 primaries for U.S. House and Senate.
Nobody filed to challenge Hyde-Smith in the Republican primary, so she moves straight to the Nov. 3 general
election ballot.
