Exactly. The Louisiana Democrat Party has retained power for one reason: Mindless robots bussed to the polls in Orleans Parish and instructed to pull the lever by the "D."
The Dems here are in full panic mode, because they know if they don't get their robots back from other parts of the country, their Party will effectively cease to exist here.
And the Lousiana Democratic party knows that a significant portion of their consistent voter base is just gone. I'd be scared too, if I was in the same situation.
