Y'all Politics: MS04: Ezell announces “I’ll Show Up” Tour ahead of June 7th Primary

May 30, 2022

The tour is a reference to incumbent Congressman Steven Palazzo’s opponents’ label of him as “No Show Palazzo.”

Jackson County Sheriff Mike Ezell announced on Friday that his campaign for Congress is launching an “I’ll Show Up” Tour to every county in the 4th Congressional District during the final week of the Primary campaign, May 31 through June 7.


The tour is a direct jab at incumbent Congressman Steven Palazzo who, over the course of the campaign, has been labeled by his opponents as “No Show Palazzo” for missing candidate forums to defend his record and using proxy voting to cast his votes in Congress instead of being on the floor at those times.


“I’m excited about this tour of the entire district during the week leading up to election day on June 7,” said Sheriff Ezell. “South Mississippi needs a Congressman who will show up, speak up and stand up for our conservative values—every day. I’m asking for everyone’s vote because I want to use my 40 years of law enforcement experience to fight for you in Congress so we can finally tackle the big challenges facing our country by securing our borders, restoring law and order, and getting our economy back on track.”



In a release, Ezell’s campaign said the Tour will begin on Tuesday, May 31 in Greene and Wayne counties, followed by stops on Wednesday, June 1 in Perry and George counties. Additional Tour stops will be announced soon to all other counties throughout the 4th Congressional District.

The Primary Election is June 7th. There are five other challengers along with Ezell vying to unseat the incumbent Palazzo. Unless one candidate wins 50% plus one vote, a runoff is possible in such a crowded field.

[Pascagoula, MS] - Congressman Mike Ezell, representing the great state of Mississippi, expresses deep concern over the recent decision by the Colorado State Supreme Court to remove President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot. This decision, in Congressman Ezell's view, raises questions about the principles of democracy and the right of citizens to choose their representatives. In a statement released today, Congressman Ezell shared his thoughts on this matter, stating, "Colorado has taken President Trump off the ballot, and this is where democracy falls. It's time that we stand up and fight back. We can show that Mississippi has his back. We stand with Donald Trump over the woke left in Colorado." The decision to exclude a former president with a significant following from the electoral process raises concerns about the fairness and integrity of our democratic system. Congressman Ezell believes that every citizen, regardless of political affiliation, should have the opportunity to vote for the candidate of their choice. "The cornerstone of our democracy is the ability of citizens to freely express their political will through the electoral process. The decision in Colorado challenges this fundamental principle," said Congressman Ezell. For media inquiries or further information, please contact: Info@MikeEzell.MS

Congressman Mike Ezell announced he is running for re-election in 2024. First elected in 2022, Ezell pulled in a whopping 73 percent of the votes. He then traded in his sheriff’s badge and uniform for a suit and tie with an American flag pin. He is serving on the Homeland Security Committee and Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. If re-elected, Ezell hopes to work with other congress members like Alabama Congressman Jerry Carl and Georgia Congressman Drew Ferguson, who both endorsed him. Ezell is excited for the opportunity to continue serving his constituents if he wins re-election. “It’s a wonderful thing to be a member of Congress. It’s a wonderful feeling to be able to work for the people and to serve the people. And I will continue to do that as long as I’m in Congress, and I’ve always done that as a law enforcement officer and a sheriff. And I’ll continue to do that. We’re all about service. The only campaign promise I made when I was sheriff, and I hold this true, if you call, we’re coming and we’re going to help.” Congressman Jerry Carl said, “We share a lot of the same common influences, same businesses, so it’s important that I get somebody like Mike that I can work with. It’s important to the people in my district.” This election is just over a year away on November 5th, 2024. https://www.wxxv25.com/congressman-mike-ezell-announces-run-for-  re-election/
