Mississippi Democrat Espy to run again for US Senate in 2020

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi Democrat Mike Espy announced Tuesday that he’s running again for U.S. Senate against Republican incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith, setting up a 2020 rematch of a race that churned up the state’s painful racial history.
Espy made the announcement Tuesday morning, telling supporters by email that he can do a better job than Hyde-Smith, and accusing her of hurting Mississippi’s progress and reputation.
