In case you're wondering, her opponent, @espyforsenate, can be found here: espyforsenate.com
.@espyforSenate was the first African American elected to Congress from Mississippi since Reconstruction. Later he was Clinton's Secretary of Agriculture. His family was instrumental in founding black hospitals and civic organizations. Howard grad. Etc.
.@espyforsenate has an uphill climb b/c MIssissippi is so red/racist. But black share of electorate higher than in Alabama, and Espy is a moderate/conservative Dem, tight with farmers. And as we've seen even candidates who fight hard, lay groundwork for change, even if defeated
