Why Voting Matters
Every eligible adult in Stone County, Mississippi holds the same power on Election Day: one vote that counts exactly as much as anyone else's. The next election for Stone County voters is Mississippi's statewide party primary on August 3, 2027, for state offices including governor and the Legislature; local elections can come sooner, so check your local election office. Local work in retail and restaurants and hospitality means debates over local businesses directly affect Stone County families.

That means roughly 7,510 adult residents did not cast a presidential ballot. Some are not eligible, but many are, and that is a lot of untapped power. If just one in 20 of them voted, Stone County would add about 376 voices, more than enough to decide a close local race.
