Automatically, she gets the black vote in Louisiana. That’s about 35%. Also, the teacher’s union, government deadheads, and courthouse crowd all vote for her.
That puts her at nearly 50% from the start, at least in the past. So she never had to get much crossover vote to win.
This time, however, she’s going to lose 60-40. She really flaunted her connections to Obama, and basically told her voters she didn’t care what they wanted.

Probably closer to the 41% she’s getting, as there is a LOT of overlap between the groups.
Here problem is that she still hasn’t been able to give the vast majority of white voters any reason to vote for her, so she gets 18% of them.
The most important change is the demographics.
LA is more white, less black, more conservative and it has changed from a Democratic into a Republican State.
The math is just against Mary Loser. Add to that her liberal voting record in Washington and her being out of touch with her own state.
If she survives, its a political miracle. She’d better pray she finds one next Saturday.
