Mississippi and Alaska Senate Races Remain Too Close to Call

Mississippi and Alaska Senate Races Remain Too Close to Call

The New York Times reported on November 5 that the U. S. Senate contests in Mississippi and Alaska remained too close to call as ballot counting continued. In Mississippi, Democratic challenger Scott Colom led incumbent Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith by roughly 1,000 votes, while in Alaska, Democrat Mary Peltola and Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan awaited the outcome of a ranked-choice tabulation after a tight mail-in ballot count.

Earlier reports noted the same uncertainty. Anchorage Daily News said Peltola was ahead of Sullivan in the early Alaska count, and CBS News warned that the ranked-choice tabulation could take weeks. USA Today and Al Jazeera both highlighted that close margins in both states could delay final results for several days.

The claim that Democrat Mary Peltola was ahead of incumbent Republican Senator Dan Sullivan in Alaska on November 4, 2026, has insufficient evidence. The claim that with over 80% of precincts reported on the same date, Dan Sullivan led Mary Peltola by less than one percentage point also has insufficient evidence. The claim that on November 5, 2026, Democratic candidate Scott Colom led incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith by about 1,000 votes in Mississippi has insufficient evidence. The claim that tight margins in the Mississippi and Alaska Senate contests could delay final results for several days or weeks due to mail-in ballots and Alaska’s ranked-choice process is partially confirmed.
