FLOWOOD, MISSISSIPPI — On September 18, 2025, Democratic Congressional candidate Michael A. Chiaradio addressed members of the Rankin County Democratic Party in Flowood, delivering a 30-minute discussion followed by an open Q&A session with attendees.
During his remarks, Chiaradio emphasized that Mississippi needs change, and that the Mississippi Democratic Party must be the organization to deliver it.
“Mississippi is not a red state — it’s a low turnout state,” Chiaradio told the crowd. “If we organize, invest early, and build a tactical ground game, we can flip this district.”
Throughout the evening, Chiaradio fielded questions from audience members on topics including the assumptions behind his economic platform, the state of First Amendment rights in America, and how to build an effective grassroots movement. His detailed, candid responses underscored his reputation as a pragmatic, analytical Democrat focused on common-sense solutions and strategic reform.
Rankin County — the largest county in Mississippi’s 3rd Congressional District — is a key organizing hub for Democrats ahead of the 2026 election cycle.
