It’s not correct, unfortunately.
Here’s the article the OP seems to have gotten his info from:
Here’s the relevant paragraph:
“In the 2015 primary for Governor, 1.14 million (or 39%) turned out to vote. Last night, turnout increased to 45%, for a total turnout of 1.34 million voters. This was a conservative turnout: while 25% of the early vote was black, JMC estimates that due to 35% Election Day turnout in white precincts and 28% Election Day turnout in the black precincts, 27% of last night’s electorate was black. In other words, an estimated total electorate that was 26.5% black, which is on the low side in Louisiana in terms of base Democratic voter intensity”
Blacks simply made up 25% of total turnout. There is nothing that indicates that 25% of Blacks voted GOP.
And in fact, if we go to the polling firm indicated in the article:

We find out that exit polls indicate that 91% of Blacks voted for the Democrat Governor.
“Furthermore, JMC estimates that Governor Edwards received 91% of the black vote and 31% of the white vote – respectable numbers, except that black turnout overall wasn’t very strong.”
Misinformation like the OP posted, and people believing it because they want to, with out engaging the critical thinking skills is what loses elections.
DONT GET COCKY.
Maybe, but not sure. Note this is based on a polling firm that “estimated” the vote-—it did NOT mention exit polls which the Tweet did.
So black voting overall fell (right in line with my predictions based on 2 years of polling).
As for whether 25% voted GOP, neither this article nor the JMC Analytics actually says anything one way or another except an “estimate” with no more specifics than the tweet.
