NATCHEZ — Today, Mississippians will vote for members of the U.S. House of Representatives from their respective congressional districts.

Because this is a primary election, voters must choose between either Democrat or Republican candidates before they vote and only candidates of their party will appear on the ballot. The most vote-getters from either party will face the other in a general election on Nov. 8. If no candidate gets 50% of the vote, primary runoff elections between the top two will be held on June 28.
