In Civil Rights terms, which are appropriate for the context, Sen. McConnell's victory over Sen. Warren is comparable to Sheriff Clark's at the Edmund Pettus Bridge.

The Edmund Pettus Bridge was the site of the conflict of Bloody Sunday on March 7, 1965, when armed policemen attacked civil rights demonstrators with billy clubs and tear gas[2] as they were attempting to march to the Alabama state capital of Montgomery.
