President Donald Trump has won Mississippi, per Decision Desk HQ.
Mississippi has voted Republican in 11 of the last 12 presidential elections, reliably serving as a mainstay of the Republican candidate's electoral-vote count. The state is not home to any competitive down-ballot races.
The state's congressional delegation is firmly Republican: All but one of its six seats in Congress are held by Republicans. Both houses of the state's Legislature are controlled by Republicans, and the governor is a Republican.
Mississippi has six electoral votes and was not expected by analysts to be competitive.
