Dems win LA House seat
Congratulations to Rep.-elect Don Cazayoux who won a special election to fill Louisiana's 6th district House seat yesterday. The seat was previously held by a Republican who resigned to take a job in the private sector. Cazayoux beat a former Republican state House member 49 to 46 percent.
...the 6th district, which is centered in Baton Rouge, has favored Republicans at the federal level for years. President Bush won the seat with 59 percent in 2004 and 55 percent four years before that. Baker had held the seat since 1986 and had faced only one serious challenge in recent memory...
