For all of the pious attacks on Haley Barbour by billboard trial lawyer John Arthur Eaves — who ran a far better campaign than I had believed he would — the most frequent one was the taunting question: "Who do you serve?"
The voters gave Eaves a resounding answer tonight - they obviously believed that Haley served them and served them well as governor.

Sid, any idea why the turnout was significantly lower than 03? I can see some drop off due to the competitive nature of that race, but there were 150,000 plus fewer votes. I was especially surprised at DeSoto County, down over 10,000.
I can understand the Coast being down (20k) but there were also fewer votes in the major growth counties as well (Lamar, Madison and Rankin)
