Democracy Docket reported that Hinds County rejected roughly two-thirds of affidavit ballots, accepting only about 34% of them, a rate far below the state average, as the close U. S. Senate contest between Democrat Scott Colom and Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith continued.

Earlier, a contract with Experian had mistakenly removed more than 230,000 voters from the rolls, prompting civil-rights groups to call for reinstatement, according to the Sun Herald. Mississippi officials were reviewing tens of thousands of provisional ballots, CNN said, while Democracy Docket warned that thousands of voters flagged as inactive needed to cure their affidavit ballots by the deadline to have their votes counted.
