The 2018 United States Senate special election in Mississippi took place on November 6, 2018, to elect a United States senator from Mississippi. The election was held to fill the seat vacated by Senator Thad Cochran when he resigned from the Senate, effective April 1, 2018, due to health concerns. Republican governor Phil Bryant appointed Cindy Hyde-Smith to fill the vacancy created by Cochran's resignation. Hyde-Smith sought election to serve the balance of Cochran's term, which expired in January 2021. On November 6, per Mississippi law, a nonpartisan top-two special general election took place on the same day as the regularly scheduled U.S. Senate election for the seat currently held by Roger Wicker. Party affiliations were not printed on the ballot. Because no candidate gained a simple majority of the vote, a runoff between the top two candidates, Cindy Hyde-Smith and Mike Espy, was held on November 27, 2018, in which Hyde-Smith defeated Espy. Despite her reasonable margin of victory, Hyde-Smith significantly under-performed Mississippi's partisan lean, as well as Wicker's 20-point margin of victory, held concurrently with the first round of the special election, in which the GOP candidates won a combined total of 58% to the combined Democratic total of 42%. Espy's 46.4% vote share in the runoff is, as of 2022, the best Democratic performance in a United States Senate election in Mississippi since 1982. The victory made Hyde-Smith the first woman ever elected to the United States Congress from Mississippi.
