What is shocking about it? Louisiana is home to red neck fascist Republicans. They were going to pick up the seat anyway. Want to talk about special elections in swing states that have gone Democrat?

You want to talk about fraud?

Because he was term limited dummy.

Not dumb, popular sitting governors have a lot of sway on how elections turn out.....Evidently he was not as popular as the leftist made out. He failed to keep his party in power, it's as simple as that.

Hopefully much more failure for the leftists is in store.

Term limits means that he could no longer run for governor.

The guy was popular and the party affiliation didn't matter because the voters respected the man.

You don't win reelection as the governor unless they like your policy. It appears that even republicans probably voted for him. He beat republican candidates twice for governor.

LA is a red state but they voted for the man who was the governor since 2016. He was in the LA congress for many years.

Yep, and now he can be respected from a distance.

2024 is looking good for Republicans.

2023 was the first time since 2007 that anyone in LA won without a runoff.

Yet the link clearly states for one year. Also the point of choosing incumbents is well taken by the report and sticking with heavily favorites is a no brainer.

I guess after backing Hershel Walker, it was best to go with the ones seeking reelection.
