Scott Colom Challenges Cindy Hyde-Smith in 2026 Mississippi Senate Race

Scott Colom, Democratic district attorney from Lowndes County, Mississippi, will run for 2026 U.S. Senate, challenging Cindy Hyde-Smith.
Colom is the first Black prosecutor elected in certain counties since defeating Forrest Allgood in 2015.
Colom's campaign focuses on Mississippi's priorities: higher wages, tax reforms, border security, domestic manufacturing.
Colom emphasizes state interests over party lines, prioritizing state needs regardless of Washington's control.
Colom faces a challenging race in a Republican-controlled state where Hyde-Smith, a Trump supporter, blocked his federal appointment in 2023 and was endorsed for re-election.
