An interesting side quest for those closely following the #Mississippi Senate results: The race featured an independent candidate named Ty Pinkins who is a black former Democrat.
Did he take votes from Scott Colom or Cindy Hyde-Smith?
He says the latter, and might be right:

#Senate in #Mississippi is another race we're all watching, of course. The state government kicked a bunch of blue voters, probably mostly Black people, off the voter roles. They had to vote with provisional ballots. The Nazis are going to try to challenge those-- I mean, they'd stop digging the hole they're in if they were wise, but Nazis are the definition of unwise.
Anyway, I'm waiting to celebrate on that too until it's done and dusted.
In the meantime...

#ScottColom was to be nominated #Federal #Judge in 2022. He was blocked. By #Mississippi #Republican #Senator #CindyHydeSmith
Her reason: #Colom's support for #transRights
So he ran for the #Senate
If he wins, he will be the first #Black Senator from Mississippi since #Reconstruction (1875!). #MS is 37% black, highest % of black residents of any #USA state
Now look at this #vote tally so far
And tell me your vote doesn't matter
Fuck yeah! This is why I have been listening to Warnock throughout this whole mess and would love to see him as Majority Leader. Idk if he wants the job but he'd be a hell of an improvement.

There will be recounts and all kinds of lawsuits and God knows what but #Mississippi may well elect a Dem senator, Scott Colom! If that happens, then it might be due to Ty Pinkins splitting the Republican vote. On purpose.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social I was just checking Mississippi. Looks about a 2,000 vote lead right now. 🤞🏻

My heart goes out to all the people standing in these lines to vote. Every time I post pics like these I'm gobsmacked at their bravery and infuriated that they have to do this.
God bless the southern blue voters, especially in nonwhite communities where it is exceedingly hard to vote.
