The 2018 MS US Senate Election could be the election that gives Democrats the US Senate majority.

The 2018 MS US Senate Election(Hyde Smith-R vs Espy-D) is going to be decided in the November 27, 2018 runoff.
Democrats will pick up US Senate seats in AZ(Sinema-D),NV(Rosen-D), and TN(Bredesen-D) 52D 47R 1TBD. Democrats could lose US Senate seats in IN(Donnelly-D) and ND(Heitkamp-D)50D 49R 1TBD.
The DSCC and the MS Democratic Party should do everything in their power to help Mike Espy win.
Trump-R won AL by a 27.7 percent margin. Jones-D won the AL US Senate seat in December 12, 2017 special election by a 1.7 percent margin.
Trump-R won MS by a 17.8 percent margin. Espy-D will get at least 95 percent of the black vote in the November 27, 2018 Runnoff. Black GOTV voter turnout in the MS Senate Special Election runoff in November 27, 2018 will be high. Espy-D could win the November 27, 2018 Runoff.

There's a reason the south remains the miserable place it is.
