Louisiana appears to be Donald Trump’s state to lose in 2024. At least, that’s the takeaway from a new Nexstar Media/Emerson College poll.
Public polling from the state has been slow in coming, and this survey, first reported Friday by Lafayette’s KLFY illustrates why.
The former President has the support of 75% of the Louisiana voters who intend to vote in the state’s GOP Primary. Gov. Ron DeSantis has just 10% support, while 10% more are undecided.
The survey was in the field Aug. 13 and Aug. 14.
Trump fundraised in Louisiana in July. His plane was met by GOP gubernatorial candidate Jeff Landry. The former President held a ticketed event in Old Metairie and also stopped at the iconic Café du Monde in New Orleans’ French Quarter.
Interestingly given his rhetoric blasting COVID-19 mitigation, DeSantis issued advisories against travelers from the state in March 2020, urging them to self-isolate. To enforce the restrictions, DeSantis compelled the Florida Highway Patrol and local police to set up checkpoints on I-10, which targeted non-commercial drivers.
The Governor’s concern was that people escaping New Orleans could infect Floridians. The order required Louisiana travelers to sequester themselves for 14 days, and failure to do so would be a misdemeanor that could have landed guilty parties in jail for two weeks.

Ron is focusing on everybody else the president what he’s not doing California governor where he falls short and everybody else he tries to downplay what about Ron in the state of Florida that he ran down tourism utilities going up rent going up real estate skyrocketing taxes going up teachers resigning by the truckload so what makes him think that anybody wants him for president he can’t even run a single state or should I say he’s running it in the ground resign from running and resign your post as Governor cuz you’re not doing very well

Good mornting America,
Here at the Earl Pitts American Fan Club Political Polling Reasearch Division we have developed the science to correct for leftist influnce on early polling.
It works out to a simple multiplication/division factor of 7. Best of all its so simple even our captive Dook 4 Brains Leftist research volunteers can for the most part work it out in their heads.
Here is a quick science based example to help the beloved audience better understand:
1.) Say for example the early polling indicates (for Republicans) Trump at a 70% approval rating. Well now Dook 4 Brains Leftys heres the correction formula – 70 ÷ 7 = 10. Or in this case Trump is actually at a 10% approval rating.
Heres another – say for example early polling indicates Desantis to be at a 10% approval rating. Get out your simple formula, except this time we use multiplcation to process the correction to the leftist polling bias: 10 × 7 = 70. Or converted it equals Desantis at a 70% true science backed – science proven percentage of public approval.
Remember Dook 4 Brains Leftys: you one and all made a commitment to “Trust The Science”. So there is no room for dispute of our pure science here.
In fact I, Earl Pitts American, am issueing a powerful Pre-Chastizement to any Dook 4 Brains Lefty/RINO who dares to dispute the pure honest science as explained above.
Another Public Service Announcement from me, “Professor” Earl Pitts Anerican,

*note: it is OK for you D4BL’s to use the calculators on your phones to compute the pure math science formulas.*

Good try as always, but Desantis is damaged goods.
I think the ‘slavery is good but I didnt have anything to do with it’ pretty much finished him off by putting him outside the mainstream.
He’s young, but I think the people running his campaign have ruined his future. Edgy stuff belongs here in comments, not in a presidential campaign.
I am grateful to his campaign staff for their work. I want old Florida back. Not the Florida of the 1950’s, but the welcoming place of tolerance where tourism, cattle, and citrus were kings.

Thank you, OJ, for your support and confirmation of my math which now we all can use to cut thru the clutter of leftist bribery of the polling business’s nation-wide to deceive our gulliable citizenary.
But wait, OJ, as they say:
There’s more, yes OJ the scientufic foumula works on the over polling of the left too 100% guranteed.
Take this for example OJ:
Say polling indicates 35% of America wants Biden to run for POTUS again.
Here we reverse the formola to 35 ÷ 7 = 5. Explained that means actually only 5% of our Great Nation want Biden to run again.
Another quick one, Say polling indicates 47% are hapoy with Biden’s economey: 47÷ 7= 6.61% are really happy
Thanks again OJ,

I’m still waiting for some MAGAmatician to expain their “one in a quadrillion” CALCULATED chance of Biden’s actually having won the election.
