Did you read my OP? I want every ballot to be counted, but an electoral system that takes days or weeks to count a fraction of the votes that many countries count in a night is not a trustworthy system, regardless of which political party wins or loses. Why is it that this country has more resources and better technology than ever before and yet elections results were far more efficient 40 or 50 years ago?


I'm going to let you in on a secret. It's pretty much always taken longer to count all of the votes. The vast majority of large races aren't this close. Once the margin is above a certain size they call the race and update the vote totals days later after everything has been counted.

That’s the difference between D’s and R’s. They stick together, republicans are scattered.

Lot of affidavit ballots to verify and count. Happens every election. It’s only noticeable now because the outcome is still up in the air.

Fertilizer. He's a Dem. They are hell bent on destroying this nation as founded. He's on board their train.

He will bless the murder of the preborn, open borders, leech loving, and on.

The Dem won, concede and move on. Mississippi is 55% white, so Republicans are an endangered species.


300,000 republicans in ms didn’t vote

MS is now a blue state. Whites are barely a majority and will be a minority in a few years.


Blacks have been 35-36% of our population since 1980. Whites were 60% in 1980, 56% today due to addition of other races.

Blacks were the majority in MS prior to 1960. Our demographics don’t change much, our population is stagnant. Republicans just didn’t turn out to vote this time

Plus, like it or not, a lot of the black vote was because of the Nolan Wells situation


That’s so dumb. There was a thorough investigation and no foul play. I understand the mistrust blacks have on these things due to the past but we will never move on until shite like this is seen by both sides for what it is, a simple tragic accident

I’d love if Colom turned out to be a solid moderate that represents Mississippi but the Democrat party tends to get people in line

No election integrity exist on any level regardless of side. It’s all a sham.

Our “leaders” are selected, not elected.

It's not flipping blue.

If Colom had run against Shad, Wicker, Tate, or even Gipson, he loses. He was running against a dullard of a candidate who was gifted the office by a corrupt machine. Just one more of Phil Bryant mistakes. Another case of a young and hungry well funded challenger taking on a dull candidate who didn't work hard.

Of course, one talk show host was seriously saying on the radio this week it was Haley's fault. Seriously. Said Haley ushered in the contracts for electronic voting. They can delete votes and rig elections. He said Haley and the other Republicans rigged the elections to take down Trump and his supporters.
