Mississippi Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann will visit Greenwood on Monday as part of a three-day, 10-stop tour to announce his reelection bid.
Hosemann filed Thursday to run for another term. His appearance is scheduled for 10 a.m. at Wildwood Cotton Technologies at 101 Front St.
Mayor Carolyn McAdams said she was pleased to hear of the visit and has a good relationship with Hosemann: “I always look forward to his visit,” she said.
Greenwood is the first stop on Hosemann’s tour. It also includes Jackson, the Gulf Coast, Hattiesburg, Meridian, Columbus, Tupelo, DeSoto County, Natchez and Brookhaven.
Hosemann, 75, was first elected in 2019. He previously served as secretary of state for 12 years.
“As a father and grandfather, I care about making Mississippi an even better place for all of our children and grandchildren — and this work is never really done,” Hosemann said in a release.
“We are grateful for the support we have received for our responsible, conservative ap-proach to running state government. We want to continue to find solutions to the kitchen table issues Mississippians care about: jobs, inflation, schools, health care systems and infrastructure.”
