Voting Today in Louisiana State Senate District 2

Louisiana State Senate District 2 is having a Primary today 4/29/17

10 Democrats, 1 Republican, and 2 Unaffiliated candidates compete for the seat.
If no one gets over 50%, the top 2 go on to a runoff.
But, if someone gets over 50% of the votes, they win outright today!

2017 is a low turnout year so it takes very few votes to win primaries.
If voters combine behind one candidate, they can win outright today.

Louisiana State Senate District 2 includes Donaldson, Gonzales, Plaquemine, Port Allen, Saint Gabriel, Thibodaux,
and is near Baton Rouge, Houma, and New Orleans.

Good luck @NowBatonRouge @IndivisibleBRLA !!
