LET'S GET READY TO RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE:

Let the Good Times Roll!: Preparations Being Made for Post-election Battle in LouisianaChris Cillizza, October 14, 2002, Roll Call)

With Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) hovering around 50 percent in recent polls, Republicans and Democrats are quietly making preparations for the possibility of a runoff campaign that could decide which party controls the Senate in the 108th Congress. [...]

Under Louisiana election law, if no candidate is able to secure 50 percent of the vote onNov. 5, the two top votegetters, regardless of party, advance to the runoff a month later.

The mind reels at the thought of what criminal behavior this would prompt on the part of the Democrats. Posted by Orrin Judd at October 15, 2002 7:01 AM
