f you thought there weren’t any major elections until the Iowa caucuses on Feb. 3, guess again. On Saturday, Louisiana will choose between incumbent Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards and Republican businessman Eddie Rispone for governor. And the race down in the Bayou looks increasingly close, so it’s an open question whether Edwards can once again overcome Louisiana’s deep red hue to win reelection.

Too close to call! LOL. We’ll see more after LA polls close at 8:00 pm tonight.

Rispone favored because state is Deep Red.

Post all election updates and results here.

What’s helped JBE is he is rather smart and able to keep his left-wing supporters in line. As a result many Louisiana think of him as a bipartisan figure.

Rispone is not favored. Edwards, the incumbent, is.

Incumbent has been up entire time, and Trump’s rally was too close to election to get any polling to see what if any effect it has..

This will be interesting

Twitter pollsters not too interested. I hope that mmeans Rs are expected to do well..

Decision Desk says they’ll have “not an exit poll exit poll” at 5.

Expecting what we saw in KY. Widespread fraud, thousands and thousands of illegals voting. If they say it’s close, that means the democrap wins. GOP has done nothing to legislate against fraud when in power. 2020 will be a disaster, as millions of illegals votes will be cast against republicans.

Our side needs to hold back ballot boxes until democrats have theirs in... Democrats have to know how many ballots to stuff - too many will look suspicious... too few and they could lose. So they wait. That's what we need to do too... hold back our boxes until they've handed theirs in...

Until we learn that trick (holding boxes back - not cheating) dems will win every race that's too close to call...
