Stunning moment here when Susan Collins admits there aren't enough votes in the Senate to end the Iran war.
Troy: Sounds like then we probably ought to have Democrats in charge of the U.S. Senate so we have the votes to stop this war.
.@TroyJackson207: Senator Collins says that she voted against the Iran War but she didn't have the votes. Well, that sounds like then we probably ought to have Democrats in charge of the US Senate so that we have the votes to stop this war and to hold Trump in check because it sounds like the Republicans won't do that. She will not stand up against Donald Trump.

People forget what experts predicted for Democrats in the Senate at the start of the 2026 cycle:
"The party picked up at least seven seats in the upper chamber, with two more outstanding but leaning Democratic."

Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. cnn.it/4iEnxUo
That's 8 flips and counting >>

There it is:
Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee issues the statement:
“Congratulations to Senator-Elect Scott Colom on his historic win and on becoming the first Democrat to win a Mississippi Senate seat in over four decades. We will work hand in hand with Scott to fight for Mississippians’ health care, costs, and future in the 120th Congress and look forward to welcoming him to our caucus. Scott is a seventh-generation Mississippian, proud husband and father of two, and District Attorney who has dedicated his life to keeping communities safe. He has never stopped fighting for his neighbors, because Mississippi Matters – and he’ll continue to be a champion for Mississippi in Washington.”
He better get used to it!

Post ’24, winning the Senate was a longshot. We had tons of calls in the early days urging staffers to give tough races a shot. Some people didn’t want to take a chance & lose—but more did. Thank you to everyone who hit the road again despite the odds. All this is because of you!
And in particular, here's to the brilliant comms people I've been proud to lose with who all finally got their wins ❤️ @lauren_chou @antoinemgivens @katelsmart @terralhernandez @sraghavan23 @PhilipShulman @tanishalcam @emma_mustion @_drew_myers_

one of the most effective - and most fun - ways to change your country: join a campaign!
An incredible leader of an incredible team ❤️
It's been a week since we flipped the Ohio Senate seat that helped deliver a Democratic majority. None of it would have been possible without this scrappy, indefatigable, ridiculously talented comms team who led one of the sharpest and most aggressive comms programs on the map.

Maya accomplished what few would dare to try—build a successful Senate digital operation from SCRATCH in just 101 days. Her team took the internet by storm and raised tens of millions of dollars online. Hats off to her and her whole team. 🫶
I’m so BEYOND proud to have run the digital program for @TroyJackson207 this cycle.
In 101 days, we started from scratch against a 30-year incumbent, and now, Maine is sending a working-class champion to the Senate. 🧵
Just unbelievable results so far in Mississippi -- where Colom's lead is only continuing to grow -->
“On Tuesday, Mr. Colom flipped DeSoto County, which shifted 30 percentage points to the left of its vote in 2024. Just outsideJackson, he also flipped Madison County and its suburbs, once known for the white flight that began with the desegregation…. nytimes.com/2026/11/08/us/el…

Counting every vote accurately and securely takes time, and in Alaska, that’s normal. We're going to make sure every last ballot is counted and every Alaskan's voice is heard.
While we wait, here's a timeline what to expect 👇

Good morning, folks! The latest AP numbers have Scott ahead by 1,936 votes down here in Mississippi. We're encouraged by what we're seeing and will keep working to ensure every lawful vote is counted. Thank you to everyone standing with us and showing your support along the way!

Dems Jon Ossoff, James Talarico + Roy Cooper would've won their Senate races without any Election Day votes
Math so you don't have to do it:
Ossoff 1,771,988 early / 60k > Collins total
Talarico 4,397,474 early / 148k > Paxton total
Cooper 1,809,879 early / 166k > Whatley total
