Yes, since a Red-State is defined as a state leaning towards giving its Electoral Votes in a Presidential Elections to the Republican Party due to the party's social and economically conservative positions that are in line with the views of a majority of Mississippi voters. Despite this, there are many Democratic-leaning voters who send Democratic federal, state, and local politicians to power as well.

Is the state of Mississippi east or west of the Mississippi River?
The state is mostly east of the river. The river was used to establish the western boundary of the state, but the course of the river has changed since then and there are now portions of Mississippi that are west of the river and portions of Arkansas and Louisiana that are east of the river.One of the easiest ones to find is Davis Island a little southwest of Vicksburg, MS: the river cut through a bight and "stranded" part of Mississippi on the west side of the main course of the river.

Is Mississippi a democrat or republican state?
Because the state of Mississippi does not offer registered voter statistics by party, we must judge either from primary elections (to see how many voters their are from both parties) or from general elections. Through primary elections we conclude that Mississippi is a state dominated by the Democratic Party. In the 2007 Mississippi Governor election, the Democratic Primary had a total of about 450,000 voters compared to about 197,000 voters of the Republican Primary. Also, in the 2008 Presidential Election, the Mississippi Democratic Party Primary had a total of about 429,000 voters compared to about 145,000 voters of the Republican party. Whereas in general elections we conclude that Mississippi is a state dominated by the Republican party. In the 2008 Presidential election the Republican candidate (John McCain) received about 725,000 votes while the Democratic candidate (Barack Obama) received about 555,000 votes. The total voter turnout for the election was about 1,290,000 voters. This is significantly larger than the voter turnout for state primaries such as the primaries for the 2007 Governor election where there was a total of about 650,000 voters, which is almost half the amount of voters that voted in the presidential election. This would support the theory that the state of Mississippi has a larger voter turnout in general elections because voters do not have to vote in affiliation with a party; evidently showing how it is more likely that there are more unaffiliated or independent voters in the state of Mississippi than there are Democratic and Republican voters.Source: http://www.sos.ms.gov/links/ed_pubs/pubs/BlueBookLow/09-Elections/pageflip.html
