Host David Greene: But can I can I ask, is this race in a different way? Sara? I'm really stuck on this Medicaid question Like it. Is there a is there a chance that one thing we're seeing in Mississippi is that maybe conservative voters in a in a poor state are sick of hearing their candidates just trash Medicaid without giving a clear explanation, Like, are there some Republican voters in a state like Mississippi who actually would benefit from having their hospitals improved with an expansion of Medicaid?
