Campaign Trend: Eminent Domain in a RED State Senate Race

In Mississippi, the Republican candidate for Senate district 37, wants voters to know she is pro private propety rights and supports eminent domain reform.

The Republican says her opponent, the former state Senator back in 2009 “sided with Republican Gov. Haley Barbour, who had vetoed a bill that would limit eminent domain. Barbour argued the limitation would hurt economic development, and Dearing agreed.”

Mississippi voters later approved eminent domain reforms in 2011.
