Bel Edward has an insurmountable 3.01% to make up between now and Election Day and he has a big problem with that high rise hotel that collapsed in New Orleans.

Why does he have a problem with the hotel collapse? I’m a TN resident and don’t keep up with the intricacies of LA politics.

There will be a runoff between the top two vote recipients since no one got a
majority.

Those two are: Rispone REP and Edwards DEM.

The collapse occurred in his state on his watch and that can’t help.

Three percent easy to make up with standard democrat ballot stuffing. Edwards wins this in the end.

Two GOP Congressional wins, in North Carolina a few weeks back, now Edwards barely gets 46 % of the votes and goes to a runoff election in November, where he will be defeated soundly by Republican candidate Rispone!!! Thanks, Trumpie!!! Obama his robo calls did zilch!!! The once magic man of color, has lost his magic touch.

And...Trump has massive, gigantic rally next Thursday in downtown Dallas, Texas being held in the American airlines Center Arena. BE THERE......FOLKS!!! www.donaldjtrump.com.

In the last week, Trump has rallied or spoke to well over 100,000 Trump supporters. Fact is, no matter what the Democrat Media spouts, the entire Democrat Party is dying, politically!!!

Let’s hope the Abraham Voters will support Rispone.

I laughed when they both got on Stage with POTUS Trump at the Rally and he told them to say something, but only to go after Edwards, not each other.

If my math is correct: 27+ 24 beats 46.

Let's hope it goes that way!

So, there was a three-way race between two Repubs and one Democrat?

WHY do I have to answer my own question ...

Highly unusual.

Do the ppl in then state of LA operate with a different set of rules and logic from the rest of the country?

Keep in mind this is a runoff and many of the Parishes won’t
have local races on the ballot. The runoff will be different
than the primary when all parishes had locals running for office.
