Biography

Mark Tullos is a Republican member of the Mississippi House of Representatives, representing District 79. He is an American lawyer and politician from Raleigh, Mississippi, where he maintains a law practice.

Tullos gained national attention in the November 2015 election against incumbent Democrat Blaine Eaton, which ended in a 4,589-vote tie. After Eaton drew the winning straw in the tiebreaker, Tullos appealed to the Republican-controlled House. A committee invalidated five of Eaton's affidavit votes, seating Tullos 4-1 and granting Republicans a three-fifths supermajority.
