Black Democrat Flips KKK Founder's County In Historic Win
On Indisputable, Dr. Rashad Richey covers the still-uncalled Mississippi US Senate race, where Democrat Scott Colom leads incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith by roughly 2,000 votes and has flipped Forrest County, named for KKK founder Nathan Bedford Forrest, while Colom says he would be the state's first Black senator since 1881. The episode details the 1966 Klan killing of voting rights activist Vernon Dahmer, whose monument reads "If you don't vote, you don't count," an NAACP deployment to help with ballot cures, and an independent candidate's claim he split the Republican vote.
