Description
Mississippi Republican Party Chairman Mike Hurst insisted on November 5, 2026, that the state's closely contested Senate election is far from over, estimating that approximately 20,000 ballots remain to be reviewed and counted.
Democrat Scott Colom held a narrow lead over incumbent Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith as election officials continued processing outstanding absentee and affidavit ballots. With both parties closely watching the count and potential legal challenges looming, the battle for Mississippi's Senate seat is intensifying.
Could the remaining ballots change the outcome of Mississippi's Senate race?
