Scott Colom's lead over Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith continues to grow as it reached 1,813 votes this afternoon.
If Colom pulls this off, it will be the political earthquake of the 21st century in Mississippi.
Madison County was not the only county where the Senator underperformed. Republican Congressman Michael Guest received 2,149 more votes than the Senator in the Republican stronghold of Rankin County.
Mississippi Republican Party Chairman Michael Hurst said there are an estimated 17,000 ballots to be counted. He said an election integrity team is making sure each ballot is properly counted or discounted. The Chairman said he is "enthusiastic" about the ballots since many are in Republican areas.

Colom is a good Mississippi dude. Anyone who actually bothers to look into his record should be happy for some new energy.
It’s mostly hinds and delta? Some on coast. The expirian use hit AA the hardest and border people with jobs in other states.
Would be incredible if he wins by 1776 votes!
Aren’t affidavit ballots the key? Those who were not active on roll but who voted and then cured deficiency? Those are all AA voters by design. 15,000 plus? Colom is the winner if thats true
Breaking news: Mississippians are tired of the same ol' shit.
That is not the same thing as an endorsement for Colom, but it is a message to the Republican party to get to business or get out of office.
Phil Bryant and Cindy Hyde Smith own this from the get go
Cindy, save Mississippians the time, expense, and effort of a drawn-out count, and graciously concede. You didn't campaign as if you actually wanted the job anyway. Go home and sit on your porch like you said in your commercials.
I don’t care if he is a Black Democrat as long as he is an America 🇺🇸 First patriot and not on the obedient take from representatives of a foreign government!
Looking at his website, he has some beliefs I disagree with alot. However he also says he supports fully funding law enforcement and funding ICE. So that's something at least
3:29pm
Colom will do as told by Senate DNC, even if it is DSA.
Pray the Democrats keep the borders closed down.
The ole porch swing is just a swinging......
Colom will soon be hiring district office staffers, likely to be filled Fondren lefties.
Well....... finally the cows have come home
When the votes come in Scott is getting
twice as many as Cindy.
@3:29 wait until you find out about Qatar Force One.
Cindy was too busy sucking the wrong asses. Hope you use your millions to get a makeover.
Thanks, Deputy Feel. You and the Republican Party (state and national) think we have no choice but to vote for you. I guessuess you found out on Tuesday.
Thanks, Deputy Feel. You and the Republican Party (state and national) think we have no choice but to vote for you. Trump even said so. Guess you found out on Tuesday.
Pick another protein was CHS’s defining moment. People in the more affluent Madison & Rankin struggle too, to put gas in their car and grill burgers. Everything cost more and she and Trump are out of touch with it. Does she really go on junkets to Vegas ?
Meanwhile Mike Hurst, who somehow has a job at a midsize law firm, is getting in social media fights with Colom and threatening to do … something if he can (but maybe not).
Sad it came to this. Republican Party refused to allow any grassroots candidate to get traction. Wicker will be next. He is as much a do nothing as Smith.
However he also says he supports fully funding law enforcement and funding ICE.
He'll vote against ICE every step of the way as the Democrats look to resume their voter gravy train running from south of the border.
Maybe George can urge him $$$$$ to give Jody a job in 2030.
It appears Mississippi voters are voting based on individual candidates, not just the party. That's encouraging.
The MSGOP honchos have been running this state for so long, they seem to think they have the right to rule, like they can cram whatever they want down our throats, and we'll still vote for them.
2:52 - Are you serious? His campaign ran AI generated ads that were lies. The guy is douchebag.
That being said I am not a fan of CHS. But, Mississippi doesn't need that ahole in any position of power. He will run this nation further into the ground. F him.
Hey Scott give me a call I will hook you up with a nice ABNB near the Capitol, until you get set up!
17K absentee ballots to process is gonna take a minute..............
It is hilariously ironic how much the GOP is "counting on" these provisional and absentee ballots to bring home the win for Cindy Hyde Smith. Six months ago, they were talking out of the other side of their mouths, saying "most" mail-in and provisional ballots are fraudulent anyway and seeking to limit mail-in or absentee ballots.
All you RINOs who voted democrat don’t you complain when they open the borders,raise your taxes,take your guns and turn America into a socialist country.! YOU voted for this! You might not believe me now but in a few years you will regret your choice. You will complain about democrats but you’d LOST the right after you voted for them.
Will he still be a good dude when he supports socialism and vote to take your guns? Supports open borders?
Yes lets support socialist party who want to have open borders,gun control,high taxes and want a socialist government
That will NEVER happen! I blame all the stupid RINOs
I’m sure he’ll be just as good for the state as Bennie has been. It’s been a good run, but y’all better get ready. Demographics are destiny and Mississippi’s are… well… pointing toward some very dark times ahead. A certain segment of Mississippi’s Democrats will soon find out how badly they’ve been used when the flip is complete and they aren’t needed anymore.
I am in Rankin county and voted for Colom. Can any name anything Cindy did since she has been in congress?? Anything? She is awful. I like Wicker but she is horrible. She didn't have the balls to even have a debate. Feckless. Go home if you don't want to work for MS.
6:28 PM said: “A certain segment of Mississippi’s Democrats will soon find out how badly they’ve been used.”
6:28, a lot of African Americans have seen the light and there’s plenty of AA conservative Youtubers proving this like Anton Daniels, George A.A., DeVory Darkins, Brian Maxwell, A Righteous Perspective, Black Conservative Perspective, Brandon Lehman, Officer Tatum & others.
Having said this, the low income poor in Mississippi have been held down for so long they just lack the mental capacity to understand how much their dependence is required in order to keep people like Bennie and those running cities like Jackson in office. Civil Rights icon Robert L “Bob” Woodson has tried to educate them without success.
90% of blacks voted for Keisha Lance Bottoms to be their next Gov of Georgia. It wasn’t that long ago in our nation’s history her doing what she did as Mayor of Atlanta leading to the death of an innocent child, would have ended her political career forever.
We are at war with Evil.
So prices are about to come down, cheap gas, and free.99 healthcare!!!!
Yep!
6:35 - You are correct, Smith did little while in office. But just WAIT till you see what Colon does. Open boarders, cradle to the grave government dependency, and a mosque in Rankin county…
It changes the 2027 race for Governor. The rejection of the far right creates an opening for a moderate candidate like Gunn or Tommy Duff and a big opening for Brandon Presley.
nobody's fault but those that supported appointing Cindy in the first place. Any other republican would have won this race 60-40.
You should blame the stupid right wingers that put on the shit show the last two years.
Blame those who blindly supported the comedy show in DC the last two years with Dr. Oz, nut case RFK, and the Fox commentator named Defense Secretary.
Hegspeth and his shit show will be ousted within a week.
All you RINOs who voted for another Bennie Thompson for senator don’t say a word when votes to open border,raise taxes supports gun control and vetoes for every liberal bill
@6:07 - give it a rest with the bs, no one believes that crap. Isn’t it about time for you to start worrying about the deficit again anyways? Maybe try that one again instead.
@6:10 - you sound upset you missed out on the free $5000. Better luck next time.
6:28 I don’t know what you are talking about and I don’t think you do either. Last year MS added ~2.2k white people and lost ~3.7k black people. That is where the population loss comes from.

Enjoyed my 6th - National Finals Rodeo trip to Vegas with Senator Hyde-Smith’s family. This time we also toured the Grand Canyon and had an opportunity to meet with Mr. Buck Taylor - a proud veteran, an actor on Gunsmoke and Yellowstone, and a very talented artist.

6:07 PM He's never made any statements of the sort. Let his actions define him. I thought Obama was supposed to take my guns but here they are.
Wicker is a major neo con problem, He gets a chubby just thinking about a possible WW 3.
I am in Rankin county and voted for Colom.
LOL. Sure you are.
6:35 PM Well said. I'm sick of no-shows and expecting fealty to the almighty "R". If you don't even want to try you can sit your ass at the house on your own dime.
Some on here are hunters,gun owners and eat meat. Do you really think a liberal democratic will support your right to hunt? Own a gun? Even eat meat? Yea there are people who want to ban eating meat. Some of you who voted democratic SCREWED yourselves! Some liberal groups like PETA even believe you have the right to have a pet. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN later when reality sets in! YOU voted for this!
Colom, represent YOUR STATE. BREAK with the dem caucus when the vote goes against the beliefs of your constituency. Do so and you might have a chance in the next election. Don't, and well, you do know Tate is around for another 2 years to appoint an empty seat. Citizens are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.
6:07 - thinking you might not understand RINOs. They are the only reason CHS or Wicker have been in office as long as they have. The only thing I regret is that this wasn’t Wicker on the chopping block.

The low information crowd never looks beyond the tips of their noses. They voted for Colom as a vote against Bryant-Smith, not knowing or caring what that will mean in the long run. When the subject of open borders, creeping socialism, bogged down medical care and eradicating the police comes up, their answer is 'Who cares?"
Pause that thought. FAFO.
This wave is a one time thing. In Mississippi’s and other states. Wicker is fine and the GOP will sweep state elections next year. 2028 will be interesting for sure.
They forgot the same people that were in during Biden are in now. I wonder how the 8 Muslims in Congress will vote on all the trans items? Lol
Here is a little inside politics that they don't want you to know and you are trained to go against. Don't vote by party vote for the best person for the job and for our state. If 50 percent of us started thinking this way we would get something done in government. Say this to any politician R and D and watch them get very nervous
Dear Cindy,
I would explain to you why you lost, but you never listen to the average Mississippian anyway.
Sincerely,
Voter
4:49 do you just make stuff up and then flippantly comment to make yourself seem smarted? I am more likely than not, voting Democrat, but Wicker has been the most active Senator we've had in a long time. Sponsors all kind of legislation and is a committee chair.
If anyone thinks that Mr Colom is anything other than a far left Democrat, you are mistaken. He will vote lock sTtep in line with the AOCs, Squads, Shumers, Shiffs, etc. Don't kid yourself. He ain't all that and a bag of chips. He is simply a dem dog on a chain. The Republicans lost because that sat on their hands for two years and did very little, if anything. Trump, I think did what he had to do with Iran but bungled the job in the long run. Abdul is nothing but a hater of Jews and Israel, he going to do nothing but create chaos. Basically, is going to be a long two years. Nothing will change.
Mike Hurst looks like he might be regretting trading his integrity to be a MAGA lackey.
Some political expert is quoted on WLBT as saying this was a rejection of Trump's ballroom. Trump doesn't get it, and neither does Mr. Expert. It's a rejection of another no-win, no-end Middle East war, the kind Trump said he wasn't going to engage upon. It's a rejection of MIGA, not any rejection of MAGA. But don't look for any change. D, R, and their foreign bankrollers, they're all just ticks of a different variety.
Cindy, "turn out the lights, the party's over." (Don Meredith, 1970)
Hyde smith got her job by republicans campaigning at black churchs and scaring them into voting for the long term incumbent so he could resign and the party could assign the people a token woman. You guys took it like a submissive lackey and voted her back in. If you always vote the party, nothing will change. I hope people are getting tired of these shenanigans. You cannot fix stupid. You must try another tactic. Even if it means the Republican Party does it again and crams her back down your throat. Elections come again in 2 years. No change, no gain.
Substitute Cindy Hyde-Smith and right Republican in this sentence: "If anyone thinks that Mr Colom is anything other than a far left Democrat, you are mistaken. He will vote lock step in line with the [usual GOP shibboleths and bogeymen] ... " Draw your own conclusions.

Good fortune for you that you are anonymous. No one with a lick of sense would drop that sentence and want their real name known.
All of y'all saying something along the lines of "RINOs. its your fault!" are just as bad as all the far left nuts in terms of being willing to take accountability for your actions...MAGA fatigue and all that comes with it is very obviously the reason for a massive flip in power. It would be more accurate to call the MAGA crowd RINOs. Y'all aren't republicans, you're blind fools following the cult of MAGA who are now reaping what you sowed.
Does anybody really know what time it is? Does anybody really care?
It’s amazing how racism will let people vote against their own self-interest. How many Billionaires are sharing their riches made off the backs of Mississippians? Who believes they should be able to put a Data Center in your backyard? Why can’t our farmers sell their crops?Why should we have to pick another protein ?
The term RINO is about as useful as the term Whigs or Know Nothings. Time to turn the page on your thinking.
I think everyone with a brain noticed that we had trouble finding anyone in Congress that would stand up to Trump. Speaking truth to power is part of the job and we don't need gutless wonders from either party who allow their leaders to spend our tax dollars on " re-doing" OUR HOUSE and destruction of OUR HISTORIC buildings and properties to suit his personal gaudy ideas. Trump saw " bending the knee to him" as the only qualification to work for a government job or appointment...experience and competence be damned! A genius MBA should have known he needed people who could give him information and knowledge he did have. Our best Presidents knew their "gut feelings" weren't the same a solid information!
Cindy 'Granny Clampett' Hyde-Smith was past her sell by date. She and the party just didn't realize it soon enough.
Senate terms are not 2 years. We are going to be stuck with Bennie 2.0 for 6 YEARS. Or until the DSA commies dissolve the senate and we become a full on totalitarian state. You people have no idea what you’ve done. But you will regret this
Feel sure can pick 'em!
Granny's last name was Moses. Daisy May Moses. Not Clampett.
Maybe Leflore county Mississippi election results should be checked. My husband had to vote affidavit ballot. The ballot was tossed into a cloth totebag that was shoved against a wall. I checked on his ballot yesterday; first they could not find it, then they said it was being tallied. I noticed James Middleton’s friend and now county administrator, Ms. Stancil, was helping. Election commission must have been overwhelmed with affidavit and absentee ballots.
Are they 'finding' polling boxes in the trunks of cars?
Hakeem Jeffries just got a new puppy. Thanks Mississippi GOP. The do nothing senator has been exposed. As bad as I hate to say it, those running for govenor in 2027 should start distancing themselves from Trump.
Trump lost it for everyone but he and his rich buddies of all parties. Arrogance. Childish gotcha games and AI slop all day. Anything but basic governance. Greed.
How about all that “private sector efficiency “ we are always hearing about? He and Musk have made billions off BS and Gubmint slop.
People were just damn well fed up with the entire White House already and then he started an idiot’s war. He’s a big fat baby and a fool. Loud mouth loser. That works in finance. But we are paying his bills to the tune of trillions. Tired of Stephen Miller the moron running things. Along with KegsBreath. Clowns.
Looks like I'm taking a long vacation to the Netherlands for the next 4 years. The women are tall and beautiful.
I don't think the author of most of the post that scream "socialism" can actually define it. And communism-give me a break. Look up all of the stocks the USA has purchased in the last two years.... that's a direct page from communism.
Did any of you see The Hat's video with the donkeys? If you want to know why this happened, that is Exhibit A. Our republican politicians acting like that is what is pushing away everyone but the reddest of necks and the hokiest in the county from the republican party. If you haven't watched, it's Tosh.0 level cringeworthy.
9:11, I agree. They are marching the fox to the hen house. They will, as we all will.
Lots of butt-hurt MAGAts out in the comments.
Really hate to see it.
Can you say Hee Haw? Sure you can!

(Does 'The Hat' think that if you are under 45 and don't have a red neck you won't watch this ad?)
Don't leave Haley out of the post mortem. Nothing Republican happens in this state without his blessing.
Haley doesn't run the state like some you think he does. First of all, the Phil Bryant faction and Haley faction do not like each other. Period. It's been what? 15 years since he was Governor? He didn't run the state before and he doesn't run it now.
A lot of comments of you'll be sorry. What about Cindy Hyde Smith being sorry for putting herself and the state in this position. About the only thing she put effort into was hangings, proteins and porch swings. Only this it just didn't work.
And of course the creator of this fiasco Phil Bryant
I don't take kindly to ballot instructions from damn Rankin County preacher men!, Hat or no hat.
And the weed and hashish are legal, we got your number
In about 1952 Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev stated that America would be conquered without a shot being fired.
