Mailers promoting a socialist candidate in Ohio’s US Senate race have links to MAGA super PAC vendor
Former President Barack Obama has launched an ad in support of Mississippi Senate candidate Scott Colom, indicating Democrats are actively campaigning to boost their candidate in the southern state. The ad will air statewide on digital and radio platforms as part of a sizable media campaign. Obama encourages Mississippians to "send Scott Colom to the US Senate," highlighting his community safety record and opposition to corruption during his time as district attorney.
Colom faces Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, a conservative Republican who previously blocked Colom's appointment to a federal judgeship under President Biden. While winning the race isn't a must for Democrats to regain control of the Senate, they have been targeting Mississippi due to its sizable Black population. Obama's ad is aimed at increasing turnout.
Other Democrats, including Raphael Warnock from Georgia and Cory Booker from New Jersey, have also campaigned for Colom.
