民主党10月25日瞄准密西西比州参议员席位挑战现任议员海德-史密斯
10月25日，美国媒体关注到一个不同寻常的动向：两党重量级人物近几周纷纷涌入深红的密西西比州，为该州的联邦参议员选举造势。民主党方面对斯科特·科洛姆挑战现任共和党参议员辛迪·海德-史密斯的前景表现出罕见的乐观，背景是民调显示特朗普总统的支持率正在下滑。密西西比州一向被视为共和党的坚固阵地，民主党极少在这里的联邦参议员选举中看到机会，此次高调投入被解读为民主党认为今年的政治环境出现了松动。双方阵营近几周在该州的频繁活动，显示这场原本不被看好的选战正在升温，这场选战将持续到11月3日大选日。

Democrats eye Mississippi Senate seat, challenging incumbent Hyde-Smith, in October 25 spotlight
On October 25, U.S. media noted an unusual development: heavyweights from both parties have been streaming into deep-red Mississippi in recent weeks to campaign in the state's U.S. Senate race. Democrats have voiced rare optimism about Scott Colom's challenge to Republican incumbent Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, against a backdrop of polls showing President Trump's approval rating slipping. Mississippi is traditionally a Republican stronghold where Democrats seldom see an opening in Senate races, and the high-profile investment is being read as a sign Democrats believe this year's political environment has loosened. Both camps' frequent activity in the state in recent weeks shows a race once considered a long shot is heating up, and it will run through the November 3 election.
