Hmm, this is an interesting election. I supposes 48% in 2003 to 54% today isn't really that huge of a jump considering the demographic changes in the state. New Orleans may have been close, but Jindal only went from 32% to 35%. Of course this is a primary and not a run-off, but Jindal was still the only Republican candidate on the ballot, wasn't he? It would only appear close because of the Democratic vote being split. Although New Orleans losing such a huge chunk of its population means it has much less influence than it did before.
Anyway, my condolences to any sane Louisianans out there. You guys now have an evil man as your Governor. 
How is Jindal an "evil man"? He may be a conservative, but he's of the "competent, managerial" breed.
