Ahead of Senate runoff, how do Mississippi voters feel about 'hanging' remark?

Although Election Day is past, a Senate contest in Mississippi remains to be decided. The race has attracted national attention due to a controversial remark made by the Republican incumbent, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, in a social media video that went viral. John Yang speaks to NPR’s Sarah McCammon, who recently spoke with Mississippi voters about Hyde-Smith and her Democratic challenger, Mike Espy.
