re: Why can't GOP on any level win EBR parish, even when they win LA in blowout?

White flight to surrounding parishes combined with a very very bad candidate. To win an election, you still have to have a good candidate. Broome is no Kip, but she's closer to Kip than Bodi is. Bodi has zero charisma, and comes accross as "more of the same" in a year when republicans wanted real change. Broome is a continuity candidate, and the dems in EBR mostly wanted that with a few reforms in policing. Broome promised them that, and she wanted.

The Democrat gave her constituents what they wanted. The Republican didn't.
