Y'all Politics was a for profit digital media service focused on political news in the United States state of Mississippi. Originally founded in 2004 by Alan Lange to cover that year's race for mayor in Jackson, Mississippi, [1][2] the publication was considered to have a politically conservative perspective.[3] In 2013, it was named one of the best state-based political blogs by Chris Cillizza of the Washington Post's blog The Fix.[4] Y'all Politics staff members were regularly featured in a variety of media outlets as experts on Mississippi politics,[5][6][7][8] and the news site also conducted polling on Mississippi political issues.[9]

The Magnolia Tribune announced in December 2022 that it had received a donation of Y'all Politics' assets following the latter shutting down.[10] Two of Y'all Politics' staff members, Frank Corder and Sarah Ulmer, also moved to the Magnolia Tribune.[11]
