Election Day Update: A 90%-Win Ratio for Small Businesses.

Louisiana voters sent a clear message on Saturday: Baton Rouge needs strong business leaders. Job creators won big, finishing election night with a 90%-win ratio!

NFIB-endorsed incumbent Lt. Governor Billy Nungesser handily won re-election. Of the 39 legislative races that were decided Saturday, NFIB-endorsed candidates won 35 of those races.

But there’s more good news. Jeff Landry made history joining only three other non-incumbent governors in winning the jungle primary outright. Fortunately, while serving in Congress, Landry earned a 100% voting record and stood up for small businesses. For the first time in eight years, local job creators will have an ally in the Governor’s Office!

Next up, is the general runoff on November 18th. Early voting in that election begins in just 3 weeks on November 4th. CLICK HERE to learn more.
