LA-2 Runoff Results

It'll be interesting to see which precincts voted for each candidate

How much you want to bet the Republican precints went heavily for Jefferson?

If Republicans broke heavily for Jefferson, then he's probably gone in 2008 since he would be unlikely to survive a closed primary.

But that's assuming he's still in Congress instead of prison in 2008, so it's most likely a moot point.

The parts of Jefferson parish in this district are mainly black aren't they? (going off memory here, could well be wrong).

Well Orleans Parish voted 77% for Kerry and the district on a whole voted 75% for Kerry, so the parts in Jefferson Parish can only be marginally more Republican to get those numbers, so yes, they most likely are predominately black.
