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.

Here’s a great example of what’s happening in Mississippi that adds to @scott_colom’s lead. A friend who is a card-carrying Republican sent me this:
227 provisional total ballots ,118 got accepted final. They broke this way:
67 Colom, 47 Hyde Smith, 3 Ty Pinkins
John R. "Buster" Brown came within 2,000 votes of flipping Collin County judge blue and Nick Pappas came within 4,000 votes of flipping Denton County blue. Both R judges are likely on borrowed time

At a Metro board meeting GM Randy Clarke just said he's likely to propose some service cuts in his budget proposal that will be released in Dec: "We don't have the funding to run the current level of service we're providing." #wmata

NOW: @CMBrookePinto is calling on the 5 newly elected Democratic governors from Georgia, Iowa, Nevada, Ohio and Texas to withdraw their National Guard troops from D.C. on day 1.
Collectively, those states account for 628 troops in D.C.
When your gerrymander breaks 💔
It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve the people of Northwest Tarrant County. Thank you for placing your trust in me over the last four years.
Together, we built a world-class team that modernized our transportation infrastructure, made historic investments in law enforcement and public safety, and positioned Precinct 4 for long-term success.
Thank you to my family and every team member, volunteer, and partner who played a role these last four years. I look forward to working with Nydia Cardenas in the coming weeks to ensure a smooth transition.
Our team in Tarrant County is the finest in the nation, and I am confident that Tarrant County’s best days are still ahead.
