Last night, Mississippians made history by electing Scott Colom as their first Black Senator since Reconstruction.

Now, let’s get to work and keep making history together.

Senator-elect Colom’s victory wasn’t an accident. He won because he ran a campaign by the people of Mississippi and for the people of Mississippi. He called out the abject failures and arrogance of his Republican opponent Cindy Hyde-Smith. He proposed a bold agenda of affordability and integrity. He traveled across the state and met with Mississippians of all backgrounds and communities. And, here at the DNC, we are proud to have played a part in this historic win by investing in the Mississippi Democratic Party and their organizing efforts every single month for nearly two years — investments we will continue making in the years to come. Jason, this wasn’t the only Democratic victory for the history books this November. Abdul El-Sayed will be America’s first Muslim senator. Chris Pappas will be the first openly gay man elected to the Senate. Keisha Lance Bottoms will be the first Black woman governor in U.S. history. There are too many firsts for us to list them all. But we want to say thank you for helping to make these firsts happen. None of the work that led us here would have been possible without the grassroots organizers, activists, and supporters like you. Now, let’s get to work and keep making history, together, with our new Democratic majorities in Congress and in state legislatures and governors’ mansions across the country.
