Just six years after Mississippi removed the Confederate stars and bars from its state flag, Scott Colom could become the first Black senator from the state since Reconstruction and the first Democrat to win the seat since 1982. The last Democratic senator in the state, John Stennis, was an avowed segregationist himself. cnn.it/48KBTy3

🚨 👻 Unbelievably, in 2018 @cindyhydesmith said this! "GOP Senator Says Voter Suppression Is A 'Great Idea'": "There's a lot of liberal folks in those other schools who maybe we don't want to vote. Maybe we want to make it just a little more difficult. And I think that's a great idea." -- Jennifer Bendery @jbendery on Mississippi Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R).

Call it when the votes are certified. A slim lead isn't a coronation.

In this deep-red state, Republicans either stayed home or voted against their own party to show their loyalty to Trump. If Democrats think this is proof that their hard work for the American people is paying off, they’d better think twice. 👇 By 2028, Republicans could be back in control of both chambers and the White House. Democrats need to be careful. People are watching, and expectations are high.

Okay....so can we now finally get to the real goal where everyone that is against racism doesn't ever consider someone's skin color when judging a person??

Mississippi state government is doing everything possible to not recognize the black candidate as the winner of the election.

It’s called synergy, @CNN . The doubt was not unrealistic. You had to have the right candidate and the right economic situation.

Just when is the corrupt MSM going to move on and stop gaslighting about racism, race, slavery and the confederacy just to keep dividing the country in trying to make some feel shame about their heritage just so others can feel good about theirs? The South has been progressing for decades even though Barack and the democrats tried to destroy all the hard work progress it's made since the Civil Rights Movement, WHICH STARTED IN THE SOUTH, with a healthy diverse population and the last thing it needs is for politicians and the MSM North of the Mason Dixon Line to keep trying to gaslight and stir up racial tensions just to fit their agenda. How is the investigation going with the @SPLC? People live here because they love it and it's HOME, and we get along more than the media would have you to believe, but we have issues just like anywhere else in this country, but we continue to work at making life better for all, and there is no denying how we've focused on education and making sure truancy is eradicated. Parents don't mind if a Sheriff pulls up in their yard and asks where their child is at.

Electoral landscapes in historic states are evolving rapidly as voter priorities shift. While traditional party strongholds face new challenges, lasting success depends entirely on addressing the core concerns of everyday citizens.

Mississippi could be witnessing a historic political moment. Beyond party lines, representation and the courage to challenge expectations matter. Do you think Scott Colom can actually make history? 🇺🇸
