At Tougaloo College the music is rocking and the crowd is ready to hear Senator-elect @scott_colom victory speech after hi historic triumph.

[EBONY @EBONY]

145 years later, Mississippi sends a Black senator to Washington! 👏🏾

@scott_colom has become Mississippi's first Black U.S. senator since 1881, nearly a week after 2018 #EBONYPower100 honoree @KeishaBottoms became the first Black woman elected governor in U.S. history.

In a state where generations fought to make Black voices heard, Colom's victory carries the weight of history and the POWER of a vote that can change it.

Let's show Senator-Elect Colom love in the comments below! 🖤

[Marlon Kimpson, Esq. @KimpsonForSC]

Congratulations @scott_colom! Phenomenal outcome.

[CNN Breaking News @cnnbrk]

Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. https://t.co/7He7iU15yD

[Marlon Kimpson, Esq. @KimpsonForSC]

Amen.

[Acyn @Acyn]

COATES: One Fox News host called you a bigger threat to the GOP in 2028 than AOC

COLOM: I'm not trying to be a threat to anybody. I'm trying to focus on delivering for Mississippi. I'm not trying to get into national punditry, where we try to figure out, you know, who's this or who's that… I think we got too much celebrity in our politics. We got to get back to leadership that's rooted in serving people.

[Marlon Kimpson, Esq. @KimpsonForSC]

Well said. 🔥 up!

[Scott Colom @scott_colom]

Y’all got that? Colom (kuh-LOAM).

Black voters delivered big wins for Democrats. Now they want results. Political strategists tell theGrio that promises aren't enough. Affordability, economic opportunity, and voting rights must be priorities. Read more: https://t.co/7laxTiAw4b

Governor-elect Keisha Lance Bottoms declared Sunday that Georgia, a state dominated by Republicans for decades, is "a blue state."

"I think it's safe to safe that we are a blue state," Bottoms said on ABC's @ThisWeekABC. https://t.co/h7mEsGUVmQ

[The Post and Courier @postandcourier]

Strong turnout from Black voters helped power Democrats to upsets across South Carolina. Now, the electoral calendar turns to the 2028 primaries. https://t.co/SRE9Xm7tFd

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

Across the Mississippi Delta, organizers spent months trying to get a community of nonvoters to reengage in democracy.

This is how a group of young Black women helped Democrat Scott Colom do the unthinkable, potentially flipping a deep-red Senate seat: https://t.co/MfUzu9Ptab

[Ashton Pittman @ashtonpittman]

Scott Colom, a Black Democrat, has flipped Forrest County—named for Ku Klux Klan founding grand wizard Nathan Bedford Forrest—by a 54%-44% margin.

Trump won it 58%-40% in 2024.

It's the county where the KKK murdered civil rights worker Vernon Dahmer.

South Carolina is already at the center of the political universe! Looking forward to hearing United States Senator @CoryBooker in Charleston on November 20th.

@MaayanSchechter But gosh, he’s still going to be in the game (didn’t read the whole thing). Congratulations on the new gig. I’m always available to be featured:)

[Marlon Kimpson, Esq. @KimpsonForSC]

@MaayanSchechter A big loss for journalism.

[Marlon Kimpson, Esq. @KimpsonForSC]

This is huge! Congratulations @SteveBenjaminSC. Thank you @UofSC for recognizing such an outstanding alumni in one of the most prominent facilities on your campus.

Wow.

[Nick Reynolds @IAmNickReynolds]

We probably need to spend more time dissecting this Joe Wilson race.

Zyon Khalifa raised less than $30,000 all cycle and came within a single point of unseating someone who has been in Congress since I was seven years old.

Wilson won by 19 last time, in 2024.

[Sam Sagnella ⚡️ @SamSagnella]

If Scott Colom wins MS, with almost no national level support, it would probably be because of this most brilliant ad out of the entire campaign cycle.

“Pick another protein?!”
