If they do, JBE wins. That’s not counting the voters who supported the other minor candidates.

I think there’s even more wiggle room considering there will be some Democrats who stay home since there won’t be other races then. So maybe closer to 65,000 or so.

Looks good for Rispone. Tight but good.

I’ll support Rispone in the runoff.

People lost sight of the real goal of this primary: kicking Admiral Ackbar’s walleyed arse out of the Governor’s Mansion.

Enough probably will but If I had to predict, a lot more Abraham voters will vote party ticket than Rispone voters would.

I voted Rispone. This is purely a political science opinion.

One thing I will personally pay attention to is Rispone's activity/participation in the North of Louisiana. From the delta, to the piney hills, to the Red River valley of the great northwest.

Because some of them seem to be quite butthurt on social media. I fear there will be a lot of Abraham voters who stay home or even vote for JBE just as a “frick you” to Rispone.

I hope they will come to their senses and vote for Rispone to fire the tax-hiking JBE.

A Trump rally at century link arena in Shreveport is an absolute must.

And if that happens, then we deserve 4 more years of Honor Code. Because it’ll really be no different than what happened in 2015.

I think Trump needs to visit northwest and central LA the week of the runoff.

I hope Eddie wins. But North La rednecks are a tribal bunch. Eddie will need Ralph to politic hard for him and mend some fences. The Abrahams fan boys will be pissed and in no Mood to support Eddie.

Need, Ralph, Trump, and the whole Duck Dynasty crew to stump for Rispone and make nice with the yocals.

Very nice idea. Thomas Assembly Center (LA Tech) would be swell, the most central point to both Monroe and Bossier/Shreveport, but that's a pipe dream. Unless James Davison has an extra level of pull than I suspect. It's a high level as is tho.

But for sure, CenturyLink....pull Monroe, Ruston area, Alexandria/Pineville, Natchitoches.

Hope so. Don’t need any “never- Eddies” in this runoff. Suck it up, hold your nose and vote for Rispone if you can’t do so enthusiastically

I’m not sure why it’s so hard to understand why Abraham voters would stay home.

Another problem to consider - Rispone voters staying home. Don’t assume all the Rispone voters will show up. St George isn’t on the ballot. A bunch of Landry, Kennedy, etc supporters don’t want Eddie to win because they want to run in 4 years. And the Democratic media smear machine has just started rolling. He can win but it won’t be easy.
