I think I read that you nead 50+1 to win in LA so even if Carmousche wins it looks like he wont cross the 50% threshold mandating a runoff without Catfish to poach away some votes. But I’m not sure if LA does have the 50% rule. Anyone know for sure?

No, only a plurality is required in 49 states in a general election. GA is the only once requiring a majority in a general election. Hence: Chambliss runoff
