• A Lee County District 1 constable will be chosen from a field of nine candidates, including interim Flossie Joyner. She was appointed to the job after her husband, Constable Bobby Joyner, who died while in office.
• Prentiss County will select a new school superintendent to replace Matt Smith, who resigned earlier this year. In the field are interim Superintendent Billy Stroupe, Kenneth Chism, Randle Downs and Rivers Stroup.
• Tippah County will have a referendum on whether to recombine the offices of tax assessor and tax collector.
