A look back at the results in the Louisiana governor's race

Here's a map of the election results by parish from Saturday's eleciton. If you want to be able to click each parish to see the results by precinct, go to the Louisiana Secretary of State's site and just click a parish. It's a nice way to look at results.

Although there were 12 candidates on the ballot, it was a four horse race with Jindal winning without the need for a runoff. Of the 63 parishes, Jindal won 59 of them. Campbell won two (Bienville, Red River), Georges one (Orleans), and Boasso one (St. Bernard).
