BY THE WAY — PERSON COUNTY FLIPPED A SHERIFF SEAT TONIGHT! Dennis Allen makes history as the first Black sheriff in person county. We are so ready for his leadership. A very big thank you to the leadership of Sarah Bradshaw and the Person County Dems. 🥹🫶

Senator-elect Annie Andrews: Nobody handed me a seat in the United States Senate. I owe no one in Washington anything. I owe South Carolina everything.

FUN FACT: Joe Biden nominated Scott Colom to serve on the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi, his nomination was blocked by........Sen. Cindy Hyde Smith.

At this moment of history, the Democratic National Committee and National Finance Committee have ignored the Southern States and gave no resources to the campaigns of Angie Nixon (FL), Jamie Davis(LA), and Scott Colom (MISS). Ms. Nixon and Mr. Davis lost by a couple of % points. Mr. Colom awaits a miracle victory on a razors edge. The Supreme Court destroyed the Voters Right Act of the Civil Rights movement and Black folks answered the clarion call to fight back because there is BLOOD ON THAT BALLOT BOX. To many died to turn back now. From this night forward there is a New Southern Stratergy led by advocates like Gary Chambers in Louisiana and Stacey Adams in Georgia. This is political malpractice by Chuck Schumer and the National Democratic Party. So while evil people plot, good people plan! The fight continues in the morning. Mississippi will be battlefront. Who in da Morning?@GaryChambersJr @rolandsmartin @staceyabrams

We invested in grassroots organizers and partnered with candidates down ballot. I’m so proud of the work we did helping to flip 17 House Seats. Many of whom were candidates we partnered with in the primary. Imagine what would have happened if we had more investment early on.

AP calls #TX23 for Katy Padilla Stout This makes it very likely that Texas Republicans, after redrawing the congressional map to yield five new seats, will end up with fewer US House seats in 2027 than they did in 2025.

Mississippi does not allow automatic or candidate-requested recounts, regardless of how close an election is, according to Ballotpedia. That means even an extremely narrow margin in the U.S. Senate race would not trigger a recount. A recount would require judicial intervention.

This is simply wrong. Moderates won almost every single one of these tough races.
It's not just Democrats winning: it's fresh, younger, more populist Dems. I really hope they become the face of the Party - now.

Center left/Moderate Democrats are the ones flipping all these seats!!! Not the DSA. Remember this, in order to keep control of the House.

So basically, Donald Trump fired a disproportionate amount of Black Women from their jobs in his “Federal Workforce Cuts” so they all decided to run for office on literally every level and won ? 🔥🔥🔥
