Attorney General Jeff Landry, a rightwing Republican backed by Donald Trump, has won the Louisiana governor’s race, holding off a crowded field of candidates.
The win is a major victory for the Republican party as they reclaim the governor’s mansion for the first time in eight years. Landry will replace current governor John Bel Edwards, who was unable to seek re-election due to consecutive term limits.
Edwards is the only Democratic governor in the south.
Let them suffer under their vote.
Turnout was terrible, the leading dem had a very very lackluster campaign, it's a jungle primary system so there was hope if there was a runoff but people didn't show up to the polls and this is our reckoning. Hopefully it's not as bad as it appears it can be.
If Democrats are good at anything, it's snatching defeat from the jaws if victory.

I never miss a chance to get my sticker.
