Republicans could lose a second red state governor's election

It's down to the wire in Louisiana's gubernatorial runoff election. In the Saturday election, Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards is trying to hold on against Republican Eddie Rispone. It's the second election in a deep red state in as many weeks that's pitted local versus national factors.

History and polling suggest it's really close, though perhaps with the slightest edge to Edwards. Edwards is, by all accounts, a popular governor. His approval rating is north of 50% in pretty much every poll taken of the Louisiana electorate. He wins if this election is a referendum on his record. Rispone hopes to capitalize on a trend of governor elections becoming increasingly nationalized.

Nice misleading headline there considering Louisiana's current Governor is a Democrat.

Good

Knot lose but potentially have stolen like in KY....although red swept the rest of the ticket by a landslide! Including the AG!

Mogodishu! Baton Rouge! If things go bad, then it's not Mogodishu Mafia Don's fault.

the headline should say GOP could GAIN a Republican gov.

that's a misleading headline. the incumbent is a Democrat

Like your 2016 prédiction? Corrupted CNN

Trump looks like a Jabba the Hutt wearing a Trump costume.

I looked with surprise when I saw this tweet, then I looked again and said, 'oh, that's CNN, so that's a lie'. CNN is no legitimate news station anymore. Just lies.

I will never tire of seeing pictures of fat old white guys holding up a fist like they're a tough guy.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!! 😐

Democrats always cheat by stacking the register with illegal names. Then they pretend to clean it after elections.

Good

A little misleading, this would be a GOP pickup.

Maybe they can have cells next to each other?

😂😂😂😂😂. Incumbent is a Democrat fool!!! CNN is a joke. 😂😂😂😂😂

Gov. Edwards has made all the trial lawyers down in the south very rich men. That is his only accomplishment. He will lose tonight.

Let’s hope trump support kiss of death again !

That is another ways of CNN confirming they will rig this election to the last votes

JUDA

Bravo from RepChrisStewart, who just summarized this whole hearing: Q: 'Do you have any information regarding POTUS accepting bribes?' Yovanovitch: 'No' Q: Do you have any evidence of any criminal activity from POTUS?' Yovanovitch: 'No' That, there, should be the ballgame

Dream on cnn. You’re gonna lose this one. Just the start of what’s in store for the do nothing Party in 2020.

Give Him Some Burgers. He's Starving !

Bad title considering the incumbent is a democrat*. *not really a democrat.

Republicans + Russia = American Destruction. (R+R=AD)

'Tell Me Why' by Xbox Game Studios is the first video game by a major publisher to have a playable transgender main character. Do they know about gamergate? Gamers are some of the dumbest people alive (and I’ve been gaming since 1988) While it's good to see gender equality in video games, announcing this as a headliner because of trans awareness week seems a bit too convenient. When titles that explore gender topics don't need a special week just to announce them, then we'll actually have gender equality. Coming soon: 'Tell Me Why - Chicks with Dicks II'
