CANTON, Miss. (WLBT) - The whole question of who serves on Cantonâs Democratic Executive Committee is again at the forefront.
This time, that question is being raised by Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson.
In an April 16 letter to committee member Natwassie Truly, Watson said the individuals who signed off on the recapitulation report from the cityâs Democratic primaries were not duly elected members of that committee.
Watson goes on to say that his office could not accept the report showing the results of the Democratic primary until a majority of commission members sign off on them.

MADISON COUNTY, Miss. (WLBT) - Madison County officials are seeking an attorney general’s opinion before taking over Canton’s 2021 municipal elections.
The city petitioned the county to take over the elections in February, in part, citing the federal fraud charges were brought against city officials following the 2017 races.
On Monday, the board directed board attorney Mike Espy to seek an opinion from the state attorney general to determine if the county could hire a private firm to run the elections, with some board members saying they want to wash their hands of it.
