Incumbent Rep. Bennie Thompson secured the Democratic nomination in the March 10, 2026, primary with 86% of the vote, defeating challengers amid his pursuit of an 18th term in the solidly Democratic MS-02, which carries a Cook PVI of D+11 and includes majority-Black urban areas like Jackson. Republican Ron Eller, who lost to Thompson 62%-38% in 2024, won his party's nomination after a close primary, but the district's historical margins and Thompson's $1.5 million cash-on-hand advantage underpin trader consensus at 91.5% for Democrats ahead of the November 3 general election. Upsets remain possible via scandals, Thompson's health at age 77, low Democratic turnout, or a national Republican midterm wave.
