Woody Jenkins lost the seat, as I had expected. The Baton Rouge area is now full of liberals, post-Katrina.

I’m not famliar with the dynamics of this race, but the republicans haven’t given anyone any reason at all to vote for them for a few years now.

Here we are in an election year, and we still aren’t hearing of any reason to support them. “I’m not the other guy” just doesn’t cut it.

I thought a candidate needed 50% to win.

The way these special elections are going I am just hoping the GOP has a workable number of Senators for an effective filibuster.

Liberals shimbrels.

You had the RAT running as a “conservative” you had idiots voting for him because of that, you had idiot Republicans staying home and you had a conservative indie taking away votes. This is a triumph of moronics not liberalism. Cause the media will proclaim victory for marxism obamism. Viva high prices!

Republican/Conservative candidates got a majority of the vote. The little Independent RINO twit Ashley Casey deprived Jenkins of a victory here.

Normally, Louisiana runs a no-primary general election, with a 2-person run-off.

Apparently, they don’t do that for special elections.

But in November, they have to defend this seat. With any luck the GOP will rally behind a single candidate.

Always an excuse, the GOP has a chance to take a Democrat District in AL. Let’s see if the GOP will fight to win.
