Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett posted on X that she is convinced Scott Colom will become Mississippi’s next senator, even though the race has not been called. In the post, she noted the final day for voters to resolve affidavit ballots at clerk offices and asked supporters to back Colom’s legal team. The message drew hundreds of replies, with many users echoing her confidence while others questioned the outcome or the counting process. The exchange has drawn attention as the tight, uncalled contest continues.
The accompanying photo shows Crockett standing outdoors under a tent at what appears to be a campaign event, next to a man wearing a “Colom for Senate” shirt. Both are smiling and pointing toward the campaign logo on his shirt, with other people and campaign tents visible in the background.
In the post, Crockett wrote that she knows “they haven’t called this race for him yet,” but is “convinced that ‘we will be fine this time,’ and that Scott Colom will become the next Senator for the state of Mississippi.” She added that “Tomorrow is the last day to get to the clerk’s office if you need to deal with your affidavit ballot” and asked readers to “please support Scott’s legal team.”
According to the post, the message was shared while the race remained uncalled, with Colom holding a narrow lead in available tallies and outstanding affidavit and mail ballots still being processed.
Colom’s campaign has said it feels good about where the remaining ballots are headed. Hyde-Smith’s side has pointed out that votes from more counties still need to be checked.
Online Reactions to the Uncalled Mississippi Senate Post
Many commenters shared confidence that the race would go Colom’s way, with one writing “Scott won period, they are going to have to call it eventually,” another saying “I’m expecting to be celebrating this win,” and a third stating “He’s definitely gonna win.”
Others focused on appreciation for the mobilization effort. One replied, “Thank you for getting out the vote. You are appreciated,” while another noted, “Jasmine was EVERYWHERE! So many did so MUCH!”
A smaller set of comments highlighted the longer-term meaning for Mississippians. One wrote, “From your lips to God’s ears. This Mississippian has waited all my life for this moment. Scott’s election honors our ancestors and instills pride and encouragement in our descendants.”
A few replies raised questions rather than celebrating the outcome, including one that asked, “What did she do? Please be specific.”
For now, Crockett’s post has added one more voice to the ongoing conversation around the still-uncalled Mississippi Senate race. As remaining ballots continue to be processed, both campaigns and online observers are watching to see how the final tally develops.
