US midterms: Democrat Colom defeats Hyde-Smith in Mississippi to win historic Senate seat

新聞摘要

以下為來源提供的節錄,完整報道請查看原文。

Democratic challenger Scott Colom defeated incumbent Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith in the Mississippi election for the US Senate, media projected on Wednesday, making him the Southern state’s first black senator since the Reconstruction era that followed the US Civil War.

The result was a stunning upset in the ‌heavily Republican state and expanded on the national drubbing the Democrats delivered to President Donald Trump’s Republicans in the November 3 midterm elections.
