'No one wants to go to war for Cindy': Ex-Republican calls on MS to act

The Lincoln Project's Stuart Stevens is encouraging officials in Mississippi to call the election after the latest dump of votes from Hines County resulted in a gain of over 700 votes for Democrat Scott Colom and 96 for Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.). MS NOW's election team ranked the race as now "leans Dem," as it would take well over 60 percent for Hyde-Smith to overcome Colom's 4,404-vote lead. "Look, Ole Miss played Georgia Saturday night, and they were 42 to 7 behind with two minutes to go, and they had a better chance than Cindy Hyde-Smith to win. This thing is done," said Stevens, who ...

Why were so many Mississippi voters removed from the state's voter rolls?

In the days before the midterms Tuesday, a coalition of the nation’s leading civil rights groups warned Republican Secretary of State Michael Watson he needed to reinstate any voters inactivated by his office’s deployment of unverified credit bureau data by Election Day. He never responded. In the wake of that decision, an unknown number of eligible voters arrived at the polls Tuesday, only to find what has happened in nearly every federal election since Mississippi’s first experiments with Experian’s information two years ago: Properly registered voters had been mistakenly inactivated(opens in a new tab) after the secretary of state provided local election officials with inaccurate address lists pulled from commercial data. The letter the coalition sent Watson, obtained by Mississippi Today, warned the state’s top elections official that known errors in the data could threaten to disrupt voting in the midterms. Elections experts say the errors now open up more room for uncertainty in ruby-red Mississippi’s razor-thin U.S. Senate(opens in a new tab) race, as Democratic candidate Scott Colom’s narrow lead(opens in a new tab) threatens to unseat Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in what would be an historic upset. Local election officials are steeling themselves for more days of counting
