What do you mean "at least put up a good fight"? Aren't you certain of his victory?

Trump's gonna win, sure, but unseating JBE shows that he'd be willing to put in the hard work to go an extra mile. The Democrats won't be win the White House for quite a long while.

You are truly the wisest among us.

Clearly early vote points to Safe R! I am 100% sure of my obvious conclusion!

Couvillon says early vote is bad for JBE.

Just based on counties, the map is pretty good for JBE. But it's early.

With 25% in I'd say JBE is well positioned to get 50%, but its far from certain or likely-yet.

Assuming Edwards fails to crack 50%, who's a weaker candidate? Rispone or Abraham?

I know we're talking about performing/underperforming in certain counties, and that's all well and good. But I think what's most interesting is that Edwards is hovering around 46% with 300 precincts left in New Orleans.

New Orleans dumps like 50 precincts, JBE back above 46.

If I had to guess, JBE finishes just below 50. Around 47/48. Maybe 49.

Is it just me or does the outstanding vote almost exclusively come out of the big cities?

wow, he UNDERPERFORMED Hillary in Richland, which is fully in

These are the obvious results of polarization, and should not be used to make conclusions about a race that JBE is obviously overperforming Hilldawg in.

A bunch of East Baton Rough votes came in ... Did not help Edwards as much as I thought it would

Mostly the GOP side of the city. Note whats still out, and how it relates to the urban core, or the  more southern university precincts.

 

Would you call it JBE vs Rispone yet or can this still end tonight?

JBE north of 47% I say is certain. Probably won't crack 49%. DDHQ has called it as a runoff. Which honestly is good for him since he is beating his polling.

How strong implications does JBE north of 47% have for the runoff?

I say Tilt D in the runoff, but it wouldn't be surprising in the slightest if Republicans run away with this.

Pity.

Luckily King Phil still waves the standard of the independent thinker up north.

Don't forget about Baker and Hogan. They sailed to victory last year, but Edwards is going to have to fight just to get a bare majority!

How can it be so close? Edwards is pro-life

Edwards is a communist, in the view of many Louisianians. All they see is the D after his name, and they care about nothing else.

Damn shame.

I think if JBE did veto the abortion bills he'd probably be noticeably lower 44-45ish. It may not help to be pro life in his position, but it does hurt to be pro choice.

I think people are jumping the gun here. 2015 saw the GOP carry 57% of the vote and JBE still carried out a sizable win.

I kinda agree, I do think people are overreacting. But it's 2019 now.
