Would someone care to explain the David Vitter-Diaper joke?

I'm surprised all the precincts were counted, and you had time to make that in the span of six and a half hours!

And based on all this Governorship talk I think Landrieu might need this.

^ From what I understand, they have some sort of contract with the government so that Popeye's is one of the most common restaurants at military bases/posts. Thats why when I first spent time in the DC area (two summers ago), I was (pleasantly) surprised that they had Popeyes in NOVA but we didn't have them in Charlotte, given that its further from Louisiana.

There's no popeyes in Charlotte? There are a lot of them down here .

Here's what I came up with for a statewide map:




I'll likely tweak a few of the smaller parishes - the shapefile is older, so I had to merge/split some newer precincts to account for that. I'm waiting to hear back from some parishes about new precinct locations/shapes. Overall though, this map should be pretty accurate.

Can we have more John Bel Edwards running across the country instead of the boring Democrats that attack opponents in such a low energy way? Edwards is brutal and that's how the Democratic Party should be.

In one of the more awkward endorsement ads I've seen, Duck Dynasty's Willie Robertson endorses Vitter.

That's a big endorsement for Vitter.
