Bush 48 - Kerry 42 in Louisiana

In that case Maryland, New Jersey and Minnesota are "winnable" as well.

Minnesota is winnable for Bush.  But Maryland and New Jersey?

MD: Gore by 16.3%
NJ: Gore by 15.9%

MD is out of the question unless Bush gets 56-57% of the nationwide PV.  But lets look at NJ.

Lets give Bush a HUGE 4% boost in NJ for 9-11.  That brings it down to 12%.  Bush still needs 55% of the nationwide PV to win NJ.

i read that david duke might enter the senate race in LA.
wonder what effect that might have.he normally draws double digits i think.

It wouldn't matter, it would still go to a runoff, and it would be Vitter v. Kennedy or John.

I have a question...if the top two candidates in the primary are Democrats, and they get under 50%, is there still a runoff?
