Mississippi Senate Election: Close Call

Mississippi's Senate race is narrow with Democrat Scott Colom leading by just over 2,000 votes. Colom's campaign claims Republican rival lacks a clear path to victory. Longshot candidate Ty Pinkins aimed to disrupt Hyde-Smith's campaign and boost Colom's vote. The race remains a contest with a narrow lead. Candidates are battling over ballots as the winner remains still in question.

“Longshot candidate Ty Pinkins aimed to disrupt Hyde-Smith's campaign and boost Colom's vote,” — Nadia Ashcombe, staff writer at Newstone Field Recruitment, explained.
