David Duke won the Republican primary, The citizens had only one other choice - Edwin Edwards(D).....like Mitt against Obami - Duke was the lesser of two evils....besides I was bored.
We’re both wizards in the sheets
On the similarities between David Duke and himself
Edwin Edwards......
As I mentioned Lousyana politics
Duke didn’t win the Republican primary—Louisiana didn’t have party primaries at such time. LA had every candidate, irrespective of party, run on the same ballot in the “jungle primary.” Democrat Edwin Edwards finished first in the jungle primary, with Duke finishing second and Republicsn Buddy Roemer finishing third. Since Edwards didn’t get 50%+1 of the vote, he went into a run-off against Duke, and Edwards trounced Duke 61% to 39%.
