As of press time, there will be three runoff elections in the local Democratic primaries.
Those who voted on the Democrat ballot can return to the polls on Aug. 23 to vote for circuit clerk, district 1 supervisor and north district constable.
Circuit Clerk Susie Bradshaw said if you voted on the Republican ballot, you will not be able to vote during the runoff elections.
“If you voted Democrat in the first primary, you have to vote Democrat in the second primary,” Bradshaw said. “You can’t cross over parties in the primaries.” -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
