Louisiana Democratic Party endorses Jefferson's opponent
Congressman William Jefferson (he of the 100k in the fridge) has 11 opponents for his seat on the 7 November election. The LA state democratic party endorsed one of his opponents, State Representative Karen Carter over the weekend. At the least, Jefferson will have to contend with a runoff.
2. He's running with the endorsement of the Mayor of New Orleans
He hasn't been charged with anything yet so I can't fault the man for staying in the race. But I do believe he's gonna have a tough time beating Mrs Carter. She's a sharp lady with a bunch of heavy hitters endorsing her. There are a total of 12 people in the race so I doubt anyone is going to get more than 50% of the vote.
