Maybe. The real question is if he will carry Orleans Parish.

I doubt Duke will advance to runoff. If he does, then +1 Dem.

FWIW, I'm expecting at least a 5-10% performance from Duke, maybe 15% if his campaign gains traction.  The "Trump effect," if you will.

True. If there's one good thing that came out of the Trump campaign, the death of dogwhistling has made racists easier to spot.

Now I understand the reptilian theory.

15% might be enough to make the run-off.

It's doubtful he makes the run off, but let's assume that he does make it and Senate control hinges on Louisiana. What does the NRSC do then? They certainly are not going to let of go of Senate control that easily.

Edited: Should have said NRSC, not NRCC.

This scenario only happens if Trump wins imo.

Considering they just nominated someone who retweets white nationalists, I would guess they "bite the bullet" and support former KKK wizard David Duke because they have no morals or principles.

Man, he aged horribly.

I think a big part of his success in the early 90s was that he was handsome and didn't "look" like a white supremacist, and that's definitely gone now.

Crazy theory I had: is it possible that enough Democrats could rally around Duke that he makes it to the runoff where he loses easily, a la David Vitter?

Yes, it is certainly possible. Not sure it is likely to work, however.

I thought Edwin Edwards was the lizard to Duke's wizard?

Maybe. The real question is if he will carry Orleans Parish.

wat

I'm just joking, but seriously, I wonder what percentage of the vote he's going to get in Orleans Parish and what percentage of the black vote he's going to get statewide.

Maybe he'll get some votes from black people who are moving out of state after the election anyway and just want to watch the world burn.

Their was a poll in another thread that Miles posted showing Duke having a slightly higher approval rating with black voters then white voters.
