Міссісіпі / вибори
Штат Міссісіпі - це така глибинна три3.13да, де реднек на реднеку сидить і реднеком поганяє. І навіть там на виборах трампіздка просрала дімакраду, та ще й нєгру. Вперше таке відбулося з 1947 року, а щоб чорненького обрали до Сенату - то взагалі вперше від часів реконструкції після Громадянської війни (1870-ті роки): ------------------------------------------
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Democratic nominee Scott Colom defeated Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith on Wednesday in Mississippi's closely contested U.S. Senate race after a prolonged ballot counting process, giving the state its first Black U.S. senator since post-Civil War Reconstruction.
Colom's narrow victory is a seismic shift in Mississippi, which has been controlled mostly by white conservatives for generations despite having the largest share of Black residents of any U.S. state. The outcome adds to a decisive midterm rebuke of President Donald Trump, whose party suffered defeats in several Republican-controlled states, and it will bolster some Democrats' argument that their future runs through the American South.
...The last time Mississippi chose a new Democratic senator was 1947.
