Trump endorsed him in May

[Nextrush]

Trump actually endorsed Landry back in May on May 8th he posted on social media in the last 24 hours saying go out and vote for Landry but the endorsement goes back to May 8th.

3759 of 3929 precincts

Jeff Landry with 52.10 percent of the vote Democrat Shawn Wilson at 25.42 percent 12 other candidates splitting the rest in this open primary.

If a candidate gets 50 percent plus one vote they win outright.

Landry is the winner.

HOW?
How could a Trump endorsed MAGA candidate possibly win in 2023?
I suspect this win will be investigated by every investigative agency in the Dept of Just-Us and even by the UN.
Impossible. Impossible, I tell you/

Landry wins outright, no runoff needed.

GOP flips Biden + 8 state house district (I’m thinking dem turnout was low in this election).

I'm also surprised the left apparently got crushed in NZ tonight. I seriously doubted the guy that replaced Jacinda Ardern would get kicked out after one term... Labour seemed to put the wool over the voters eyes and pick a guy who PM who came across as a harmless lovable "folky" candidate who cares about the little guy, instead of a dangerous leftist ideologue wacko or an out of touch limousine liberal elitist. Slick "John Edwards 2004" (before people realized Edwards was scum) type candidate:

[Nextrush]

It’s the economy folks and NZ hit hard by inflation.

Ardern left earlier this year but COVID left a bad taste in NZ especially in the wallet her party was toast.

Winston Peters who does the local version of Trump got over 6 percent of the vote for his New Zealand First party and eight seats in Parliament.

May have a shot at joining the new gov’t but they will try to keep him out.

[Persevero]

Oh but being pro life is costing republicans all the elections /s

[albie]

There are soooo many stupid Americans. Voting for ANY dem is a vote against freedom.

[Nextrush]

Lindsey Graham supports terrorists I would never vote for him.

[Oystir]

Who cares if T endorsed him? Irrelevant. Not in FR standards of a correct headline.

[Deplorable American1776]

Waiting to see if there’s a 4am dump before I celebrate, however I’m happy. Maybe Louisiana can have a population growth.

Hi, Impy. Which is the Biden+8 HD that the GOP flipped? Is it a suburban district?
