Republican Caleb Kleinpeter’s Win in Louisiana Could be National Bellwether

Republican Caleb Kleinpeter’s recent victory in Louisiana’s 17th District State Senate Race against incumbent Democrat State Representative Jeremy Lacombe can become a model for future Louisiana and national State legislative races.

53% of the District’s voters are Democrat, and only 26% are Republican. Yet Kleinpeter received 50% of the total vote, and another conservative Republican, Kirk Rousett, received 8%. In a District where Democrat voters outnumber Republicans two to one, 58% of the vote went Republican. In Lacombe’s own home Parish of Point Coupee, 47% of the voters cast a ballot for a Republican. Contrast this with the 72% of the vote Lacombe won in Point Coupee against a Republican in his State House Race in 2019, before he had a record that could be effectively exposed. It is nothing short of stunning.
