We officially have a Democratic candidate for the 2026 Mississippi Senate and his name is SCOTT COLOM!
Now #MSSen is not on the radar…yet.
But if this environment persists, it just might be.
Scott currently has only 154 followers right now.
Let’s fix that.
PLEASE FOLLOW HIM @scolom.bsky.social!

🚨ENDORSEMENT ALERT🚨 We’re proud to endorse @scolom.bsky.social in his race for #MSSEN. Scott Colom understands that corruption is driving up costs and is ready to pass commonsense reform to root it out and lower costs for Mississippi families. We’re excited to help him win.

The vulnerable GOP Senators who knowingly endangered America when they voted to confirm an obviously unqualified Kash Patel:
John Cornyn - #TXSen
Dan Sullivan - #AKSen
Jon Husted - #OHSen
Pete Ricketts - #NESen
Ashely Moody - #FLSen
Roger Marshall - #KSSen
Cindy Hyde-Smith - #MSSen
TrumpsTaxes @trumpstaxes.com
Blockbuster report about Kash Patel’s excessive drinking, erratic behavior, and dangerous incompetence. It got so bad that they had to request SWAT Team ‘breaching equipment’ when he wasn’t reachable behind locked doors. GIFT ARTICLE to read/share. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

No one is talking about the Mississippi Senate race right now, and understandably so.
But if things keep going the way they’re going, don’t be surprised if everyone is talking about it - and Democrat @scolom.bsky.social - in September and October.

How one GOP senator blocked a nominee — and ended up with a real opponent
Democrat Scott Colom talked to Semafor about his challenge to Mississippi’s Cindy Hyde-Smith, who blocked his bid to become a federal judge three years ago.

Since he won the #MSSen Democratic primary a few weeks ago, I’ve mentioned that we should not sleep on Scott Colom.
Mississippi is tough, but if a true blue tsunami forms in November, this is the type of seat that could ride the wave and shock the world.

A new poll of Mississippi's U.S. Senate race from Impact Research has Democrat Scott Colom trailing incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith by just 3 points. With leaners added, she's ahead 47%-44%. Trump won Mississippi by 61%-38% in 2024. www.splcactionfund.org/wp-content/u...

Ahhh, I love a good ol’ example of Republican ‘stolen policy valor’.
This time it’s Cindy Hyde-Smith taking credit for a transportation and infrastructure project that she actually voted against.
Mississippi, you can do so much better.
Vote for Scott Colom as your next Senator.

Cindy Hyde-Smith voted against the funding and now is acting like she built the tracks.

The Mississippi race for Senate should prove an interesting test, considering the incumbent’s such a lightweight. #MSsen #Election2026

Take 90 seconds to watch this video from Democrat for #MSSen @scolom.bsky.social laying out how #CindyHydeSmith 's #corruption in Washington DC hurts Mississippi families.
#Mississippi isn't a *red* state - it's an *under-organized* state!

In fact I so enjoyed Scott Colom in the interview - and I so believe in Mississippi's potential as a battleground state both in the near and distant future - that I chipped in a small donation to his #MSSen campaign this year.
Keep an eye on this race...and on @scolom.bsky.social.

I encourage everyone to listen to this week's @the-downballot.com podcast with #MSSen Democratic nominee Scott Colom.
They get into the doable 'math' of winning a state like MS, and @scolom.bsky.social proves himself to be a refreshingly authentic candidate.
