U.S. Senate Incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith wins Mississippi’s Republican primary election
Senator Hyde-Smith, backed by former President Trump, won with 83% of the vote and raised $2.7 million for her campaign in the GOP primary.
- On Tuesday, CNN projected Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith and Scott Colom won their primaries, setting a November rematch after Hyde-Smith blocked Colom's federal judgeship nomination.
- Using her blue-slip tradition, Hyde-Smith blocked the nominee, citing his support from George Soros and his role supporting transgender rights, Calvert said.
- In the Democratic primary, Scott Colom defeated Albert Littell and Priscilla W. Till while highlighting his prosecutor record and 2015 district attorney race win over a nearly 30-year incumbent.
- The matchup raises the possibility that Hyde-Smith will help the GOP retain Senate control, while Colom could become the first Black senator from Mississippi since Reconstruction.
- Despite the GOP advantage, Democrats say they are buoyed by modest gains last year and state legislative pickups, reflecting shifting political dynamics in Mississippi.
