Results for the Mississippi First District special election, filling the seat of Senator Roger Wicker.
Update: The AP has called the race for Travis Childers. Mississippi now has three Democratic Representatives...out of four.
Update #2: Congratulations to Rep.-elect Travis Childers, his staff and volunteers, the voters of Mississippi's First District, the DCCC...and the good people at Swing State Project, Cotton Mouth Blog, The Thorn Papers, Will Bardwell, and anyone I'm forgetting :)
Update #3: The NRCC spent over $1.3 million in this race, and that's not counting what shadow groups like Freedom's Watch put in. It's an R+10 district. They ran some ads which were nasty as hell. And their candidate, if not outstanding, was not especially controversial.
We beat them anyway, on their turf.
Update #4: Turnout was astronomical. Especially for a runoff. It's likely that it will exceed 100,000 votes, which is insane; turnout was around 64,000 in the first election.
