@cbsnews: The Senate midterm race in deep-red Mississippi is leaning toward Democrat Scott Colom, who holds a narrow lead over incumbent Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith as of Tuesday afternoon. The race remains uncalled, with outstanding absentee and affidavit ballots still being processed ahead of Friday’s deadline for counties to certify their results. Election workers at the Hinds County Election Commission in Jackson walked CBS News’ Mark Strassman through the process of verifying ballots and counting votes. “It’s a lot of pressure,” Kidada Brown, Mississippi’s District 1 election commissioner, said. “We’re going to take our time, and we’re going to make sure we doing what’s right.” #news #mississippi #election #democrat #republican
