Democrat Scott Colom defeated GOP Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith after days of ballot counting, becoming Mississippi’s first Black senator since Reconstruction and the first Democrat the state has sent to the Senate since 1982. Colom, a district attorney, won narrowly after Hyde-Smith conceded and congratulated him, and D.L. and the crew relish the full-circle twist: she helped block his 2022 federal judgeship nomination, and he ended up taking her seat.
