In Close Runoff, Democrats Try to Finish Strong in Louisiana

Key Points
• In advance of Saturday’s runoff gubernatorial election in Louisiana, the data point to Gov. John Bel Edwards (D-LA) as a small favorite.
• We’re moving our rating there from Toss-up to Leans Democratic, but even if Edwards holds on, it may not be by much.
• In the aftermath of Virginia’s election, we found some further signs of nationalization in the results. CONT.
