Tate Reeves is the GOP candidate in Mississippi. Tater Tot isn't personally popular, but Democrat Jim Hood has some old tyme racist skeletons in his closet.
GEAUX (away) Edwards!
The Donald may have to make a visit to Nawleans before the election.

The republicans combined got over 50 %
Well it looks like Louisiana will soon have a Republican Governor
A “win”?
It was a blowout!
Thank goodness.
Don’t know why they don’t get rid of his jungle primary BS.
John Bel Edwards*
Democrat 46.6%
Eddie Rispone
Republican 27.4
Ralph Abraham
Republican
317,115 23.6
Anyway it’s Eddie over Ralph.
Nungesser (LT G), Schroder (Treas), Strain (Ag Commish) and Landry (AG) all R win reelection easily.
Donelon (Insurance Commish) wins 53-47 over a fellow Republican.
Acting Sec of State Kyle Ardoin (R) faces a runoff with a rat. 3 GOP combined for 66% in the race.
I’m curious about black turnout.
From hayride last night: 7:03 p.m. – There is a little bit of buzz out there that black turnout in Baton Rouge and New Orleans has been very soft.
Edwards took less than 40% of the vote in 2015 while three Republican candidates split 57%. Yet Edwards won the runoff 56% to 44%. This isn’t over, not by a long shot.
Great great news... Louisiana good job so far...
