View Full Version : Trump-backed Louisiana GOP Governor candidate Jeff Landry wins outright majority (51.6%) in Oct 14 governor election, avoiding Nov runoff

It's a surprise because he outperformed the polling aggregate by just over 9%, where every poll including (R) internal polls had the race going to a November 18th runoff.

Landry would have won the runoff no doubt, however Landry outright winning on October 14th with an outright majority was a surprise. A critical thing to note is Landry's large lead in the early vote, which wasn't the case for most Republicans outside of Florida even in last year's midterms.

Is Biden tanking Democrats way downstream now all of a sudden, or simply energizing people nationwide to vote Republican? Is the Democrat governor in Kentucky now in jeopardy despite the polling lead? Is the Virginia Senate going to flip red?

Yes, this (Louisiana) is a red state federally, but they have had Democrat governors more often than not; perhaps polarization and the anti-Biden movement is too strong for Democrats nationwide to overcome and the Democrats are in trouble not just next month but also in 2024?

[This also puts to bed any notion of the Democrats drawing a second Democrat-majority district in the state of Louisiana, as that would-be second district based around Baton Rouge voted for Landry by low double digits.]

That's a sweet one. Anytime you can reject the D's and that dreaded November runoff it's a correct, righteous kill. It keeps it local, within the state borders. If it had went to November MSM/CNN would've gotten in intimately involved and then you're on the Wallenda's high wire.

Got 'em!

Now let's get a whitepill in Kentucky. Uphill climb, but, doable. Just need high turnout. Low turnout is good for incumbents like (Laura) Kelly, Whitmer, Beshear. High turnout will close to match the true partisan lean of the state.

The Louisiana election was very high turnout.

Trump, Cameron etc need to spend the proper funding so they don't end up like Laura Kelly's opponent and Gretchen Whitmer's opponent last year. Barnstorm the state, knock on doors, SPEND MONEY ON ADS, emphasize VOTE EARLY VOTE OFTEN VOTE REPUBLICAN, early voting wins the day these days, we cannot repeat the 2018-2020-2022 mistake of relying on election-day only turnout to win elections. We must do what Florida and Louisiana GOPs have done and become the party that dominates the early and early absentee voting numbers, not the left. That is how we win, in Kentucky and nationwide in 2024.

Looks like we are doing well in the Virginia congressional elections in the early vote, too. :tu Vote early vote often vote straight red ticket :toast

Yep, Trump was too stubborn about mail in ballots. He should've swallowed his pride there and addressed us thru a paid television appearance.

It was a giant mistake that I lament to-this-day. But he was snortin' by then and not thinking clearly. I'm sure he was told by a bevy of advisers but when he makes his mind up that's it, Ft. Pitt.

This is only the third time I've spoken to you since you've returned and it will be the last. You go back a long way with a lot of people here, but none of that matters now because you are nothing now. People filter you out and forget you, which is likely why you spend so much time here now. You have no one in real life either. They want you to just go the fuck away so here you are again.

95% of the posters here either have you on ignore or don't even know you are posting...but you just keep on bumping threads and parroting. They don't want you here. I don't want you here. I'm pretty sure your family doesn't want you either. So do us, your family and the rest of the fucking world a favor and go down every medication bottle with your name on it and rid all of us of your existence.

He [Beshear] ran as a "muhhhhhhderate" Democrat like his dad to some extent, which he's not. Similar situation with Bob Casey [Jr] the PA Senator who is not a muuuuuuuuuuuhderate Democrat, while his father, Bob Casey [Sr] legitimately was.

Beshear tried to shutdown the state via executive order in 2020, but the overwhelmingly GOP supermajority state legislature blocked him in the nick of time and saved the state from being basically 2020 in Michigan.

It's personal with bene, Dumper. I can't fathom where his fascination with my shit comes from, but I finally know that's it's real. He's going on about my personals, doubting my shit, caught up in it. Why? I'm a non descript jerk of nary consequence anywhere man dwells, but he'd beat me up if he caught me in the street. I'd want to sit and talk NBA, and Trump. bene would want to seriously wreck my shit. This latest soliloquy tells me he's been keeping tabs and scores on me for a lot of years and finally blew his top last night.

I do not understand it. And never will.
