At some point, we have to talk about @CookPolitical and other “prognosticators” who had me and other southern candidates labeled as solid R for much of the campaign cycle. They made it much more difficult to fundraise and are part of the reason the South has been neglected for so long.
They’re only a reflection of the past and mysteriously avoid any accountability when they’re wrong. One of their “analysts” was extremely condescending to me (not Jessica) when I tried to make my pitch for why they were wrong about my rating like he knew something about MS politics when he’s never been to the Sip. This attitude hurt Jaime Davis & others so much.

There has been speculation about donors withholding support for a Harris 2028 campaign.
But The Sun clarifies that no donor has directly told Harris they would withhold donations if she runs again. 👀
Don't believe unnamed sources spreading false rumors!

Scott Colom ignored his "advisors" who told him that bringing Kamala Harris to Mississippi was a 'bad idea'
She came and now he is going to be the next Senator in Mississippi
During her recent trip to Switzerland, Kamala Harris said she won’t set a timeline for making a decision about whether to run again in 2028. She emphasized that her family will play an important role in that decision.
She will make an announcement when she feels ready to do so.
@KamalaHarris: “I understand the focus on ’28 and all that. But there will be a marble bust of me in Congress. I am a historic figure like any vice president of the United States ever was.”
December 2025.
“Multiple sources told The Sun that no donor has told Harris that they would withhold donations from her for another presidential run. One of those sources said the former vice president doesn’t view money as her primary concern. At least one of Harris’ allies suggested the fundraising concerns are overblown.”

One detail:
Scott Colom’s advisers tried to keep Kamala Harris out of Mississippi, two Dems say. He went around them and called her himself.
Now his race is too close to call, and he’s crediting her with putting the state’s crumbling rural hospitals on the map.

“At a cocktail event held before a fundraising dinner in Atlanta late last month, Harris schmoozed with more than a dozen major donors. None made an offer to finance her next steps, according to a strategist briefed on the event. But Harris did not make any requests either, they said.
Another senior Democrat told The Sun that multiple donors had offered to fund Harris’ nonprofit organization earlier this year. Harris turned down the offer, saying her focus was on fundraising for 2026 midterm candidates.”

Washington Sun: Kamala Harris’ decision to run for President could come at the end of the year.
Kamala Harris has a decision to make — and the clock is ticking on when those close to her say she should make up her mind
Advisers and friends in Harris’ orbit have told the former vice president that she should decide by the end of this year whether to make another run at the White House, according to three sources familiar with the conversation, arguing that drawing it out much beyond that would be unfair to the nearly two-dozen candidates expected to run
