The first president to be elected in Mississippi was James K. Polk. He served as the 11th President of the United States from 1845 to 1849 and was notably elected while Mississippi was still a relatively young state, having joined the Union in 1817. Polk's election was significant for his focus on westward expansion and territorial acquisition.
