Is it the case in Louisiana that if no candidate gets over 50% in the election that a run-off election is held?
I thought that’s the way it was in the Senatorial races in LA.
If so, it wouldn’t matter so much if the Dem has 29%, because in the run-off all the R votes would coalesce. Right, or not?

Yes, exactly that.
Last year's US Senate election Mary Landrieu got 42% of the vote to Bill Cassidy's 40%. Meaning that Landrieu "won" the ... open primary.
In the general election, Landrieu got 44% and Cassidy got 56%.
