George: “No mander!”
Elaine: (wipes off glasses) “oh…I mander”

In another win for the American people, Scott Colom has made history as the first Black U.S. senator representing Mississippi since Reconstruction.
For too long, Southern Democrats have been overlooked, left out, and even looked down upon — but we are on the rise.
Scott Colom is the first black Senator popularly elected in Mississippi history.
Truly an important moment in American history.
On a related note: Southern Democrats are so, so incredibly back. So back that some say we never left.
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

UNC Chancellor Lee Roberts tells me he's against Raleigh getting a Major League Baseball team, worried about what could to do attendance, especially the overlap with college football season, and sponsorship dollars available for local college teams, wral.com/sports/unc-chancell…

People keep telling me to put down the juice and soda and drink some water. That’s fine but it better be sparkling with a hint of lime.

Hindsight is 20/20: NC Republicans could have easily drawn a 9R-5D or even a 10R-4D map that would have withstood a blue tsunami (by drawing one more safe Dem seat in the Triad). Instead, by trying for a 11R-3D map, they're on track to end up in a 11D-3R hole.

Scott Colom entering the Mississippi Senate race:
NEW: Sen. Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.) says she won’t support the nomination of Scott Colom to be a district judge in Mississippi. This could prevent his nomination from moving forward with Democrats maintaining need for home-state support on district picks. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law…

Real Gs move in silence like lasagna
. @AnnieAndrewsMD’s victory was supposed to surprise you. But more importantly, it was supposed to surprise national Republicans.
Smart insight from @JoshuaKarp on how his team advised the campaign on managing the attention economy.
