Time is running out for Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith as Colom's lead grew to 4,669 votes with 98.8% of the vote counted. It is Colom's largest lead yet in the U.S. Senate race.
Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson provided an update on the election last night. Mr. Watson said in the video posted below:
* 76 counties have uploaded uncertified results
* 4 counties have certified results.
* Friday is deadline to upload certified results.
* 2,323 absentee ballots have not come in yet.
* 18,178 affidavit ballots have been processed.
* Mr. Watson said a portion of the affidavit ballots were used because people forgot their ID. Yesterday was the deadline for providing ID.

Will be interesting to see how many affidavits “appear” corrected for CHS. Rs have had these votes in bags here for years. Now’s the time to try it out.
Welcome, new libs. Orientation is at the old Cracker Barrel on 55 (it’s a community safe space now).
Surrender your guns to the nearest they/them. They’re becoming a community bike rack.
Soros-Bux are in your Venmo, your truck is electric now, and it identifies as a Subaru.
Your deer stand is affordable housing now for transitioning unwed immigrants.
Your pronouns will be assigned by mail. Do not open the envelope before Pride.
Report any lingering urges to say “Let’s Go Brandon” to your district wellness coordinator.
I'm afraid Michael Watson is incompetent.
Meemaw needs to prepare her concession speech. Payback for "blue slipping" Colom is hell, isn't it Cindy? Hallelujah, the country has finally realized that Trump is senile, incoherent, anti-science, racist, profane, uneducated and a narcissistic grifter.
How can dozens of people "forget their ID?" How did they get to the polling place? How many are scamming?
There was never a path for her to overtake Colom once it was clear even the reliably red districts were trending in his favor. Someone tell Cindy we picked another Senator, so give your concession speech already lady so we can move on.

Scott Colom is a nasty slob and his commercials with the cursing in them and ghetto “sheeeeiiittt” talk is so degenerate and ugly. He wore a hoodie with no shirt underneath yesterday for a press conference. I think we have elected someone dumber than CHS, somehow.
You clearly don't know the process and probably lack the ability to understand.
Must have learned that from your people.
Re: 9:10am
TDS has you confusing Biden with Trump. In your deranged/demented state, you (nor I) could even dream of matching Trump's energy, leadership, efficiency nor continuous love of country. Respect that Trump is 30 points above you in IQ and tries for 14 hours a day 5-1/2 days a week, to Make America Great Again, even for derelicts.
The dems are very good at ballot box stuffing.
Dear ALL political party zealots who are ill-mannered, hurl insults and caste blame without bothering to be informed on any issue, we voted against YOU. China , Russia and Saudi Arabia ( self-proclaimed Communist and Islamic countries) profited while we are stuck with a shrinking middle class and fighting among ourselves. Once upon a time ,we tried to help or contain those who are a danger to themselves or others, now we give them guns and vote them to office!
It's genuinely hilarious to see conservatives like 9:03 still dragging out "they're gonna make you, uh, put pronouns on, uh, your gun, I guess".
Sincerely, no hard feelings though. Most Dems agree that Woke 1.0 was pretty stupid and are looking forward to fighting for all working Americans. Hope you have a great day!
It doesn’t matter he will have zero influence on anything of consequence. The balance of power shifts back and forth but has anything changed? Bennie has been in office 36 years, his district was the poorest in the country then and still is now. Has anything been done to address social security, Medicare? The politicians in Washington are all beholden to the same special interests who control what laws are passed. Anyone waiting for the powers that be in Washington to do anything of substance to address the day to day lives of the average American will be left behind. The changes that need to be made, such as addressing the national debt, social security, etc. are difficult and will be unpopular, no one wants to deal with them for fear of losing their seat in Congress. Stop waiting for an elected official to do anything for you, they really don’t care. A good education and working hard are the only way to make life better.
NEVER should have been in this situation. Surprised that she was appointed. (well, I don't know everything} Never would believe she would try to retain the seat. She won? Well, dodged that bullet and will not try that again. Timing wasn't right this time. Yep, I know that's it. Developing the masterplan, I can't wait to see it. I know it's going to be awesome, just watch! I honestly believed that plan was in place to strengthen ourselves in that position. And then she ran again? Now, what in holy hell!! I'm done...tired of the manipulation. Thanks Deputy Phil.
If parties wish to retain power, more incumbents should be primaried. We are tired of the same ole stuff. No more excuses, DO YOUR JOB! A definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results. No more.
Do you know how many people drive without a license?
That’s a joke 9:10? In Biden’s twisted rambling incoherent blather and Kamala’s word salads with frequent cackling, I don’t think it’s Trump that is senile. Biden did a few interviews on Jimmy Kimmel and the view but answered no tough questions from the press.
Jill is urging Joe to run in 2028. She said he is fit as a fiddle and she is ready to lead the country again like she did in his first term.
Kick that can down the road I say, kick it hard.
**From the First Book of Missippians**
1. And it came to pass in the second year of the reign of Joseph of Delaware, who sat in the great house in Washington, that he chose a judge from among the sons of Mississippi.
2. And the man's name was Scott, of the house of Colom, a keeper of the law in the northern counties, who had prosecuted the wicked and was favored among the people.
3. But by the custom of the land, no judge could be seated without a slip of blue parchment from the senators of his own state — a small thing, no larger than a man's hand.
4. And Cindy of the house of Hyde-Smith, who held a seat in the upper chamber, looked upon the man and withheld the slip. She crossed her arms and said, "This one shall not sit."
5. And the nomination withered, as a vine withereth without water, and the seat of judgment stood empty.
6. Now the man Colom was silent, but he did not forget; neither did the scribes forget, for they wrote it down.
7. And in the days of the great choosing that followed, Colom arose and spake unto himself, saying: "If I may not take the bench by her leave, then I shall take her seat by the people's."
8. And he journeyed through all the counties of Mississippi, which are fourscore and two, and the people hearkened unto him.
9. And the ballots were cast, and the counting thereof was slow, for the tallies came in dribs and in drabs, and the counters would not yet say the word that endeth the matter.
10. And lo, when the numbers were read aloud, his number exceeded her number — by thousands, and by hundreds besides — and it continued to grow, batch upon batch.
11. Then the wise men of the land lifted up their voices and said: "Had she but signed the little blue slip, this man would today be sitting in robes in a quiet courtroom, judging the cases of other men, and no threat to her at all."
12. But she would not sign. And so the man she would not seat upon the bench came instead for the chair she sat in.
13. Therefore let it be written for the generations: *Withhold not the small blue parchment from thy neighbor — lest he return, and take the whole seat.*

The leadership of the Party were told Cindy was in trouble weeks ago. They arrogantly said the person informing them did not know anything. They shot the messenger
When liberals are in charge, they go cra-cra. Look at Texas and behold your future.
God is judging the US by allowing evil politicians to assume power.
Scott has it.
Is it time for the naa naaa naaa naa, naa naaa naaa naaa song yet?

God did that in 2016 and again in 2024.
Nah, just Nelson’s “Ha-ha!”
@10:46, well done, although we may not align politically. This is very similar to a short booklet from the '70s titled, "The Begatting of a President" about the ascension of Nixon to the presidency after falling to Kennedy in the 1960 election. Funny stuff; highly recommend, though it's almost certainly out of print now. I got a used copy at a book sale around 1981.
Yep! RINOs voted for a 6 year term liberal senator. Hello open borders,gun control,higher taxes and more social programs! RINO don’t complain you voted for it
Did anyone see this? She is knows it is over! https://www.mediaite.com/politics/watch-cnns-manu-raju-grills-red-state-gop-senator-on-what-went-so-wrong-in-reelection-battle/
Cindy HIDE-Smith
Yep and a lot of RINOs voted for him
It's time for Minnie Pearl to concede to the election to Colom. She ran a poor campaign.
All you RINOs should be ashamed of yourselfs for voting for a liberal socialist senator. Because you hate trump. Trump will be gone in two years. A liberal senator will have 6 years and you voted for it
I agree a lot of republicans crossed over and voted for him That’s want I don’t like
To all you uneducated RINOs who hate Trump because the Iran war drove up ga prices. Let me put it in a way you will understand. Iran was working on a big bomb. The big bomb can go boom and kill a lot of people. Iran doesn’t like Israel . Iran might use big bomb on Israel. Isreal will not like that . Isreal will use big bomb on Iran. Big bomb goes boom in Iran. Iran and Israel become a radiative waste land. Oils stops coming from Middle East. World panics and oil shortages start driving up gas prices to MUCH higher prices if you can get it.
So sad that some MAGAs are still stuck in their echo chamber.
The war was an attempt to stop Iran from getting a nuke but all people care about was paying $4 for gas. Do you not see the big picture people?? Pay $4 today or hell of a lot more latter
Welcome off the ledge y'all. We've been waiting for you and we know you're hurting!
Rhino hunters are Really freaking out now. Actually, it's obvious, it's only one that's really on the deep end. Grab the popcorn and settled in. This show is only getting and better.... hotlines lookout!
I don’t think it’s accurate to blame Iran solely for Trump’s unpopularity. People are fed up with him more generally- tariffs, corruption, constant attention seeking, narcissistic obsession and all. They let that be known everywhere by voting for moderate (not leftist) candidates. In CHS’s case it’s compounded by her weak performance as a US Senator and lack of enthusiasm for running a campaign. A stronger Republican would have fared better- as illustrated by other down ballot candidates.
The ultimate irony shown here in the comments: the very "issues" that got Republicans kicked to the curb across the country are the ones that all of the MAGA faithful here continue to trumpet - guns (BS); open borders (BS); trans athlete takeover (BS); socialism and communism (BS). Those NON-issues destroyed your candidates; the kool-aid stains on their lips was easy to recognize. The large majority of voters, in MS and nationwide, understand there are real concerns facing this nation. And they're also tired of all the lies that Trump used to take over your party, lies he continues to tell. Once you dumbasses learn to read, there's some writing on the wall you should check out.
@9:27, if you don't like sheeeiiittt talk, then maybe you should pick another website, just like CHS suggested we pick another protein
I'm afraid people don't understand parody.
She played with the wrong man’s career. Schumer wanted him to run against Wicker the last time. He deferred, he wanted Cindy HIDE Smith.
One of Wicker's people told me in September of 2023 they weren't going to get ambushed or surprised like Cochran was in 2014. They fundraised and worked for the next year. They didn't care who the opponent was or if there was an opponent. Hell, Roger even appeared at JSU halftime although he was booed. They took it seriously, which can not necessarily be said for the other Senator.
Someone who previously had my phone number was a registered Democrat. I received a dozen text messages from the Colom campaign and they mentioned Iran every single time. He 100% ran on Iran and the economy. Bitching about ICE doesn’t resonate here.
CHS didn't do the job. I did not vote for her. I did vote for Guest.
I honestly would not be surprised if Trump flips....remember how tight he was with Dems in the 90's and 00's?
No, 1:59. I did not vote for Colom. But neither did I vote for CHS. I chose not to wash, rinse, repeat and expect a different result. And I voted for Trump. Twice.
Primary all incumbents.
