Democrat Gov. John Bel Edwards has held the office for eight years but had to step down due to term limits. The top Democrat in Saturday's race, former state transportation secretary Shawn Wilson, was only able to pull 26% of the vote despite having consolidated Democrat support in the race.

"Republican Jeff Landry claims back Louisiana governor's office in stunning GOP victory" reads USA Today's headline. "Jeff Landry, a Hard-Line Republican, Is Elected Governor of Louisiana," laments The New York Times. And CNN calls Landry "a hard-line conservative."

Ordinarily, Republican victories would not be surprising in a country where Democrats have been such obvious and painful failures. Between the alien invasion, horrifying foreign policy catastrophes, impoverishing inflation, out-of-control crime, and intensely disliked, openly corrupt Democrat officeholders, the GOP should be skating to easy victories wherever they choose to run.

But there is no denying that the abortion issue has led to disappointing Republican losses since the Supreme Court handed down the Dobbs decision last year. From the disappointing Red Trickle in November 2022 to conservative Ohio's special election in August that set the stage for a pro-abortion constitutional amendment, the issue has manifestly rallied left-wing voters.

Over a year has passed since Dobbs, however, and the nation is settling into the new normal in which states pass their own laws according to what their voters choose. Democrats profess to love "our sacred democracy," so they have a hard time arguing against it when people democratically vote to protect the unborn in their own locales. But then again, logical consistency has never been Democrats' strong point.

Meanwhile, Democrats have been such utter failures at governing that abortion may no longer be a powerful enough talisman to save them. Households have lost somewhere in the neighborhood of one-fifth of their spending power under Biden's disastrous rule.
