Why we checked itSpecific number of vetoes attributed to Governor Mills against the opponent's bills — a concrete figure that could be verified against legislative records
What we foundThe claim that Governor Mills vetoed 40 of Troy Jackson's bills is consistently reported across multiple outlets and is a figure Jackson himself has stated publicly, with no credible source contradicting it.
CorrectedCorrection: The claim text was corrected to include the opening words "You said that," as spoken in the debate. The rating is unchanged.
