Cassidy just walked out of ballroom and was immediately swarmed by photographers. He was walking in the direction of the restroom... #lasen

Cassidy’s ahead of Landrieu in #BatonRouge early results, where Landrieu dominated in Nov. Early results show him at 53%, Landrieu at 46%
"Bill" Cassidy (R) 64.20% 106505
Mary L. Landrieu (D) 35.80% 59386
No parishes with any substantive returns in; the highest I found was Vernon Parish with 6 out of 73 precincts in: Cassidy at 78%, running way ahead of his 58% showing in the primary. Probably gathering almost all the Maness votes.
He needs to wash the blood off because this is turning into a bloodbath. Might be the biggest loss for an incumbent in a long time.
Certainly one without a major active scandal.
