SCOOP: Trump-Allied Mississippi AG Running for Governor

Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell

Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch will announce her candidacy for governor of the state, the Daily Signal can first report. 

“It is just such a proud moment to be able to even announce my candidacy for governor, and it’s always about making the tough choices and putting innovative ideas into action,” Fitch told the Daily Signal in an interview. 

Fitch served two terms as state treasurer before becoming Mississippi’s first female attorney general in 2020. If elected, she would become the state’s first female governor, as well. 

“I’m excited having that knowledge base to be able to bring to the governor’s office again, understanding the complexity of state government,” she said, “understanding how we, as we work together, can make a lot of great positive things happen in our state.”

She has been a strong ally of the Trump administration, partnering with the Department of Health and Human Services to stop human trafficking and help locate missing foster children. 

Under Fitch’s leadership, Mississippi was the first state to pilot Operation Hope, which aims to rescue foster children before they are trafficked.
