Voters in Warren County and across the state will return to the polls Tuesday to decide nominees in party primaries.

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. with typical summer temperatures in the mid-90s with sunny skies.

Because temperatures soared to 100 degrees for Aug. 2’s primary, Warren County supervisors were prompted to move south Vicksburg-based Jett precinct a second time this year, to Immanuel Baptist Church. Otherwise, officials with the county and both party executive committees were confident air conditioning and portable fans at 22 precincts will work properly.

Tuesday’s runoffs are a result of no candidate receiving 50 percent of the vote in the first leg of voting, on Aug. 2.

In the voting, those who cast ballots three weeks ago in the Republican primary will choose between Vicksburg city accountant Doug Whittington and Donna Farris Hardy, a retired health care industry administrator, as the nominee for chancery clerk. The winner faces City Clerk Walter Osborne, a Democrat, and independents Alecia Ashley and Gene Thompson in the Nov. 8 general election. Hardy finished 89 votes ahead of Whittington in the 5,312 votes cast in the first segment of the three-way primary.

District 1 Supervisor David McDonald faces John Arnold in the runoff for the northeastern Warren County seat. On Aug. 2, McDonald finished ahead of Arnold, a real estate broker, by 107 votes out of 2,006 cast in a three-man race. The winner faces independents Jerry Briggs and Reed Birdsong.

Runoffs also are set in Claiborne and Sharkey counties.

In Claiborne, Frank Davis, sheriff since 1979, faces a challenge by Marvin E. Lucas.

In Sharkey County, District 2 Supervisor Melvin Jones faces Leroy Smith Jr. The winner will face independents Ellis Stuart, Christopher Booker and Eugene Lane Jr. in November.

Across the state, GOP voters will choose a nominee for state treasurer, either Lynn Fitch, the state personnel board director, or state Sen. Lee Yancey of Brandon. The winner will face Ocean Springs Mayor Connie Moran in November.

Democrats will decide a nominee for governor, either Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny DuPree or Bill Luckett, a Clarksdale businessman. DuPree received 43.5 percent of Democratic primary votes, ahead of Luckett’s 39 percent. In November, the winner will face Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant, who won a five-way primary for the Republican nod.

State Treasurer Tate Reeves won the GOP primary for lieutenant governor and will likely win the office, as no Democrat filed to run. The same is true for Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann, who won the party’s primary. State Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, R-Brookhaven, faces Democrat Joel Gill in November for commissioner of agriculture and commerce.

In legislative races, state Rep. George Flaggs, D-Vicksburg, faces Republican Sam Smith in Vicksburg-based District 55. State Rep. Philip Gunn, R-Clinton, who represents parts of northeast Warren County, faces Democrat Jim Culberson.

Local races in November include:

• Circuit clerk, where incumbent Shelly Ashley-Palmertree, a Democrat, faces Republican David Sharp and independents Jan Hyland Daigre and Robert Terry.

• Sheriff, where incumbent Martin Pace, an independent, faces Democrat Bubba Comans.

• Tax assessor, where Democrat Angela Brown faces Republican Mike Caruthers and independents Ben Luckett and Doug Tanner.
