Let me add to my Post of a few minutes ago. Yes, the “Jungle Primary” in LA is on Election Day, Nov. 4. I know it’s crazy but all those Cajuns were drunk the day they instituted that. States control how they do their elections, and that’s how they chose to do it. And.... all candidates are on that one Primary ballot regardless of Party. So, if no one gets 50% of the vote and two Pubbies or two DemocRATS are the top vote getters, they are in the run-off.

Only in Louisiana......

I voted in Louisiana for many years. Without the jungle primary, I would have never been able to vote, except for Presidential elections. The Republican party could hold their conventions in the Baton Rouge Dunkin’ Donut and the top two vote getters were always Democrats. The primary was the general election.
