Whatcha mean? Mississippi is seemingly getting a blue senator, which I believe, is the point behind the post.

You are correct! The margins are so slim that every vote matters

Has it been called yet? The margin is slim af, I wouldn’t count this one in the bag until they’re done counting. But Texas AND Mississippi going blue in the same election would be incredible

The key idea isn’t actually that Mississippi might go blue, it’s the margin. The fact that it’s so small means that if more people had actually voted instead of just doomer-posting and convincing others it’s not worth it, the result could be entirely different.

I mean, Texas ACTUALLY went Blue. 1 senator from Mississippi is a good step though.

Texas elected Blue for most of the executive functions
