By 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, the Mississippi Supreme Court Central District runoff race still hadn't been called, leaving the race in a neck-and-neck position. Both incumbent Jim Kitchens' and challenger Jenifer Branning's campaigns confirmed they were no longer expecting full results right away.

The winner of a runoff between Mississippi Supreme Court Justice Jim Kitchens and Jenifer Branning likely won’t be declared until next week.

According to the Associated Press, about 97 percent of the votes had been counted as of early this afternoon, with Branning holding a very slim 1 percent lead over the incumbent. About 1200 votes separate the two candidates in the unofficial count.
